EpidemiologyWhole-Genome Sequencing of Corynebacterium diphtheriae Isolates Recovered from an Inner-City Population Demonstrates the Predominance of a Single Molecular StrainIn some parts of the world, Corynebacterium diphtheriae has reemerged as a pathogen, especially as a cause of infections among impoverished and marginalized populations. We performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) on all cutaneous C. diphtheriae isolates (n = 56) from Vancouver’s inner-city...
