Genomic characterization of<i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i>causing invasive disease in South African infants: observational studies between 2018 to 2023

2025-06-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPn) is a leading cause of invasive bacterial disease in African children, albeit with a scarcity of genotypic characterization. <h4>Methods</h4> Invasive KPn isolates collected from young infants ≤90 days of age through observational surveillance across six hospitals in South Africa between March 4 th , 2019 to February 27 th , 2021, and between May 13...
