2022-05-18
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Mycobacterium abscessus (Mab) is a multi-drug resistant pathogen increasingly responsible for severe pulmonary infections. Analysis of whole genome sequences (WGS) of Mab demonstrates dense genetic clustering of clinical isolates collected from¬ disparate geographic locations. This has been interpreted as supporting patient-to-patient transmission, but epidemiological studies have contr...
