摘要
Mark Walker and colleagues report the whole-genome sequencing of 132 group A Streptococcus (GAS) isolates of a sequence type that has been associated with scarlet fever. The isolates were obtained from 58 clinical cases of scarlet fever and 83 cases without scarlet fever during the course of a recent epidemic in Hong Kong.
