A microbiological and genomic perspective of globally collected Escherichia coli from adults hospitalized with invasive E. coli disease.

Objectives: Escherichia coli can cause infections in the urinary tract and in normally sterile body sites leading to invasive E. coli disease (IED), including bacteraemia and sepsis, with older populations at increased risk. We aimed to estimate the theoretical coverage rate by the ExPEC4V and 9V vaccine candidates.
