Prevalence of multidrug-resistant hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae without defined hypervirulent biomarkers in Anhui, China: a new dimension of hypervirulence
Klebsiella pneumoniae is an opportunistic pathogen that mainly causes nosocomial infections and hospital-associated pneumonia in elderly and immunocompromised people. However, multidrug-resistant hypervirulent K. pneumoniae (MDR-hvKp) has emerged recently as a serious threat to global health that ca...
