Report on a transborder spread of carbapenemase-producing bacteria by a patient injured during Euromaidan, Ukraine

Spread of carbapenemase-producing bacteria has been described all over the world. This phenomenon may be accelerated by many factors, including wars and natural disasters. In this report, we described an NDM-1-producing Klebsiella pneumonia ST11 recovered from a patient injured during the Maidan rev...
