Abstract excerpt

We identified 23 cases of Mycobacterium immunogenum respiratory acquisition linked to a colonized plumbing system at a new hospital addition. We conducted a genomic and epidemiologic investigation to assess for clonal acquisition of M. immunogenum from hospital water sources and improve understanding of genetic distances between M. immunogenum isolates. We performed whole-genome sequencing on 28 M. immunogenum...
