Figure 5. Temporal and spatial transmission trajectory of global blaOXA-232–carrying carbapenem-resistant Klebsiella pneumoniae. Coral-colored countries on map indicate geographic regions where blaOXA-232 has occurred; arrows show dates and direction of transmission. The blaOXA-232–carrying isolate originated in the United States, initially expanded to the United Kingdom and China, then spread to the rest of the world, with China as its central focus. Red circles represent major outbreak regions in the United Kingdom and China; size of the red circles corresponds to the number of strains analyzed in each country.
