Declarations
:
: Permission of the (guardians of the) cases for diagnostics and sequencing of the human specimens was not required because the GGD has legal permission, provided by Dutch national public health law (Wet Publieke Gezondheid (WPG))[40], to process patient information for surveillance and outbreak analysis of notifiable diseases and can request microbiological laboratories to perform additional testing (including whole genome sequencing) on available clinical materials (article 25 section 5 WPG). Therefore, medical ethical clearance for this study was not required.
: Not applicable, see section ‘Ethics approval and consent to participate’.
: The authors declare no competing interests.
