Pandemic cholera was reintroduced to Argentina in 1992, leading to epidemic spread. Here, the authors use whole genome sequencing to show how, over 6 years, epidemic cholera was caused by invariant 7PET lineage Vibrio cholerae, against a background of sporadic disease caused by diverse local strains...
