Abstract excerpt

Background: Vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium (VREfm) represent a major source of nosocomial infection worldwide. In Australia, there has been a recent concerning increase in bacteraemia associated with the vanA genotype, prompting investigation into the genomic epidemiology of VREfm. Methods: A population-level study of VREfm (10 November-9 December 2015) was conducted. A total of 321 VREfm isolates...
