There is very little formal info out there on LOD.  This was added to the CDC website when they redesigned their site, but I figured I'd post the link directly since it's hard to find.

I also wanted to add my page on LOD.  http://pages.ivillage.com/groupbstrep/id15.html

Roughly half of babies who contract GBS now will be late onset babies.  It's time there was more focus on prevention!
