Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu Health News

Following the outbreak of streptococcal infection at a garrison in Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, Quebec, over 1,800 military personnel have been given antibiotics. The outbreak resulted in the hospitalization of six recruits who have now been released. According to the Department of National Defense, one of the six was confirmed invasive Group A Streptococcal (GAS) case and another a probable invasive GAS case.

Healthy people also have Group A streptococcus in their nose, throat and on the skin. People without symptoms of the infection are known as carriers but it can cause illnesses such as impetigo and strep throat. If the group A strep bacteria enters a sterile part of the body such as joint fluid or blood, a condition known as group A streptococcal infection results and it can lead to death or severe illness.

Jennifer Eckersley, the spokeswoman for CFHS Public Affairs told Defense Watch that the Canadian Force Health Services launched a mass antibiotic prophylaxis or MAP program for the recruits after consulting with local health officials. Most of the recruits were injected with penicillin and those allergic to it were given azithromycin, an oral antibiotic. Military officials strongly encouraged the process even though it was voluntary.
