1202. Multimodal Sequencing of a Clonal Case Cluster of Carbapenem-Resistant Citrobacter Reveals Unexpectedly Rapid Dynamics of KPC3-Containing Plasmids

BACKGROUND: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) are a major public health threat. We report four clonally related Citrobacter freundii isolates harboring the bla(KPC-3) carbapenemase in April–May 2017 that are nearly identical to a strain from 2014 at the same institution. Despite differin...
