Title: KPC-3-Producing Serratia marcescens Outbreak between Acute and Long-Term Care Facilities, Florida, USA. Cord-id: ejtlmecq Document date: 2020_11_1
ID: ejtlmecq
Snippet: We describe an outbreak caused by Serratia marcescens carrying blaKPC-3 that was sourced to a long-term care facility in Florida, USA. Whole-genome sequencing and plasmid profiling showed involvement of 3 clonal lineages of S. marcescens and 2 blaKPC-3-carrying plasmids. Determining the resistance mechanism is critical for timely implementation of infection control measures.
