Hypervirulent emm59 Clone in Invasive Group A Streptococcus Outbreak, Southwestern United States
The hyper-virulent emm59 genotype of invasive group A Streptococcus was identified in northern Arizona in 2015. Eighteen isolates belonging to a genomic cluster grouped most closely with recently identified isolates in New Mexico. The continued transmission of emm59 in the southwestern United States...
