Emergence of KPC new variants (KPC-16 and KPC-17) and ongoing outbreak in southern Taiwan W.-L. Yu, M.-F. Lee, H.-J. Tang, M.-C. Chang, J. Walther-Rasmussen, Y.-C.

Fig. 1 Numbers of monthly isolated carbapenem-resistant enterobacteriaceae (CRE) and confirmed blaKPC-17-containing Klebsiella pneumoniae (KPC-17-KP) as well as death number of the patients carrying the KPC-17-KP isolates from an outbreak hospital from January through July 2014. The outbreak hospital was located at a different district area in the same city as the Chi Mei Medical Centre in southern Taiwan, where the KPC-17 was first discovered in 2012.
