Molecular epidemiology of O139 Vibrio cholerae: mutation, lateral gene transfer, and founder flush.

abstract：:A cholera outbreak began in Haiti during October, 2010. Spatiotemporal patterns of household-level cholera in Ouest Department showed that the initial clusters tended to follow major roadways; subsequent clusters occurred further inland. Our data highlight transmission pathway complexities and the need for case and ho...
