Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae of Lineage ST66-K2 Caused Tonsillopharyngitis in a German Patient

8 Jan 2021

Abstract excerpt

Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) is a novel pathotype that has been rarely described in Europe. This study characterizes a hvKp isolate that caused a community-acquired infection. The hypermucoviscous Klebsiella pneumoniae (K. pneumoniae) strain 18-0005 was obtained from a German patient with tonsillopharyngitis in 2017. Antibiotic susceptibility testing was performed and the genome was sequenced by...
