Persistent cross-species transmission systems dominate Shiga toxin-producing <i>Escherichia coli</i> O157:H7 epidemiology in a high incidence region: a genomic epidemiology study
2024-04-07
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Several areas of the world suffer notably high incidence of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli , among them Alberta, Canada. We assessed the impact of persistent cross-species transmission systems on the epidemiology of E. coli O157:H7 in Alberta. <h4>Methods</h4> We sequenced and assembled 229 E. coli O157:H7 isolates originating from collocated cattle (n=108) and human (n=121) popul...
