Antibody levels against the cell wall-attached GAS antigens SclA, SclB, and GRAB were significantly lower in patients with severe invasive disease (streptococcal toxic shock syndrome [STSS] and/or necrotizing fasciitis [NF]; n=35), compared with levels in patients with nonsevere GAS bacteremia (n=35).
