Abstract

We report the clonal dissemination of ST201 Enterococcus faecalis carrying Tn5382-vanB2 and of CC17-ST64 Enterococcus faecium carrying Tn5382-vanB2-ISEnfa110 among 16 hospitals in four geographically distant regions in Chile. This is the first epidemiological characterization of vancomycin resistance in Chile, and also the first report of interhospital dissemination of enterococcal vanB2 in South America.
