Draft genome and antibiotic resistance profile of a multidrug-resistant <i>K</i> . <i>pneumoniae</i> -ST152 strain KA017_S253 from a neonatal blood culture in Ghana
Bloodstream infection and neonatal sepsis pose a significant public health threat in sub-Saharan Africa. To support drug discovery, surveillance, and vaccine development prospects, genomic data on resistance are needed. We present a draft genome and antibiogram of a multidrug-resistant <i>Klebsiella pneumoniae-</i>ST152 strain KA017_S253, recovered from a neonate.
