Real-time investigation of a Burkholderia cenocepacia bacteraemia outbreak in a Vietnamese intensive care unit
WGS plays a crucial role in outbreak control, particularly for under-studied opportunistic pathogens. This work also highlights key gaps in IPC measures, species identification, and treatment of Bcc infections, warranting further research to improve hospital prevention and treatment strategies.
