Genomic surveillance reveals international circulation and local transmission of Salmonella enterica serovars Typhi and Paratyphi A in Taiwan

CONCLUSION: Due to the advance of global transportation and communication, the transmission mode of infectious disease has been modified. Domestic typhoid and paratyphoid fever caused by international resistant clones can occur in low-incidence countries. Genome analysis showed that the indigenous clone originally imported from other countries has been circulating in Taiwan for over a decade.PMID:34274303 | DOI:10.1016/j.jmii.2021.06.004
