Covert dissemination of carbapenemase-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPC) in a successfully controlled outbreak: long- and short-read whole-genome sequencing demonstrate multiple genetic modes of transmission

BACKGROUND: Carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae (CPE), including KPC-producing Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPC-Kpn), are an increasing threat to patient safety. OBJECTIVES: To use WGS to investigate the extent and complexity of carbapenemase gene dissemination in a controlled KPC outbreak. MATERIA...
