Figure 2

Whole-genome sequencing dendrogram of VIM-CRPA clinical (N = 20) and environmental (N = 13) isolates from hospital A, Texas, USA. Location of culture collection, isolate source, and patient hospital day when clinical culture was obtained are shown. All isolates were sequence type 308 and harbored a VIM-2 allele. No hospital day is provided for isolate 2018-33-17 because it was collected during an emergency department encounter; patient had had an overnight hospitalization in hospital A 2 weeks earlier. ICU, intensive care unit.
