Genomic epidemiology of vancomycin resistant <i>Enterococcus faecium</i> (VR <i>Efm</i> ) in Latin America: Revisiting the global VRE population structure

2019-11-14

Abstract excerpt

The prevalence of vancomycin-resistant Enterococcus faecium varies across geographical regions yet little is known about its population structure in Latin America. Here, we provide a complete genomic characterization of 55 representative Latin American VR Efm recovered from 1998-2015 in 5 countries.
