A cluster of melioidosis cases occurred in eastern Sri Lanka, with four infections caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei isolates of sequence type 594. Whole-genome analysis revealed genetic diversity among the isolates and showed that the cluster was nonclonal.
A melioidosis case cluster of 10 blood culture-positive patients occurred in eastern Sri Lanka after an extreme weather event. Four infections were caused by Burkholderia pseudomallei isolates of sequence type 594. Wholegenome analysis showed that the isolates were genetically diverse and the case cluster was nonclonal.
