Genomic analysis of an outbreak of toxin gene bearing Corynebacterium diphtheriae in Northern Queensland, Australia reveals high level of genetic similarity

Toxigenic diphtheria is rare in Australia with generally fewer than 10 cases reported annually; however, since 2020, there has been an increase in toxin gene-bearing isolates of Corynebacterium diphtheriae cases in North Queensland, with an approximately 300% escalation in cases in 2022.
