Declarations
:
: The study collecting the human faecal carriage isolates was approved by the Regional Committee for Medical and Health Research Ethics, North Norway (REC North reference: 2016/1788). The two studies collecting human infection isolates were approved by the Regional Committee for Medical and Health Research Ethics, Western Norway (REC West reference 2017/1185 and 2016/1093). No additional approvals were required for using the human faecal carriage and infection KpSC genomes for this study as we did not collect any additional samples or data. The three studies are published 21,22,25 and the genomes included in the studies are publicly available (in BioProjects: PRJEB42350, PRJEB48268 and PRJEB27256). The research conformed to the principles of the Helsinki Declaration.
