Phylogenetic inference of pneumococcal transmission from cross-sectional data, a pilot study [version 1; peer review: 1 approved, 2 approved with reservations]

Background: Inference on pneumococcal transmission has mostly relied on longitudinal studies which are costly and resource intensive. Therefore, we conducted a pilot study to test the ability to infer who infected whom from cross-sectional pneumococcal sequences using phylogenetic inference. Methods...
