Rapid metagenomic next-generation sequencing during an investigation of hospital-acquired human parainfluenza virus 3 infections
2016-09-10
Abstract excerpt
Metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) is increasingly used for the unbiased detection of viruses, bacteria, fungi, and eukaryotic parasites in clinical samples. Whole genome sequencing (WGS) of clinical bacterial isolates has been shown to inform hospital infection prevention practices, but the use of this technology during potential respiratory virus outbreaks has not been taken advantage of. Here, we rep...
