摘要：
Hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumonia is becoming recognized globally and has been associated with serious sequelae including death. However, ethnicity and metastatic infections are characteristics for hypermucoviscous hypervirulent Klebsiella pneumoniae (hvKp) and should be rolled in/out by PCR and/or string test.
