Seawater-Associated Highly Pathogenic Francisella hispaniensis Infections Causing Multiple Organ Failure

A rare case of Francisella hispaniensis infection associated with seawater exposure occurred in a deep-sea diving fisherman in Zhejiang, China. He had skin and soft tissue infection that progressed to bacteremia and multiple organ failure. Moxifloxacin treatment cleared the infections, but the patie...
