Early diagnosis and prompt treatment are critical for improving outcomes. While antibiotic therapy is generally effective, the emergence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria poses a growing challenge. In such cases, alternative treatments and preventive measures, such as maternal vaccination, are being explored.
