Antimicrobial Resistance and Genomic Characterization of OXA-48- and CTX-M-15-co-Producing Hypervirulent <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> ST23 Recovered from Nosocomial Outbreak

Multidrug resistance (MDR) and hypervirulence (hv) have been long considered distinct evolutionary traits for <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae</i> (Kp), a versatile human pathogen. The recent emergence of Kp strains combining these traits poses a serious global threat. In this article, we descri...
