Sequencing and Characterization of Five Extensively Drug-Resistant Salmonella enterica Serotype Typhi Isolates Implicated in Human Infections from Punjab, Pakistan.


ABSTRACT: A large outbreak of extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi infections is ongoing in Pakistan, predominantly in Sindh Province. Here, we report the sequencing and characterization of five XDR Salmonella Typhi isolates from the Punjab province of Pakistan that are closely related to the outbreak strain and carry the same IncY plasmid.
