Genomic analysis of 600 vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium reveals a high prevalence of ST80 and spread of similar vanA regions via IS1216E and plasmid transfer in diverse genetic lineages in Ireland
BACKGROUND: Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREfm) cause a wide range of hospital infections. Ireland has had one of the highest invasive VREfm infection rates in Europe over the last decade, yet little is known about Irish VREfm. OBJECTIVES: To investigate the population structure of Iri...
