The Amateur Traveler talks to Erik Smith about his home state of Michigan. Erik has been on the show twice before talking about National Parks but this time he tells us about the beautiful state of Michigan. While Erik is from the Detroit area and describes some of its museums and other attractions what he really recommends is the west coast of Michigan with its sand dunes and sunsets, Traverse City with its boating, and the wilderness of the Upper Peninsula. He does manage to work some national parks (Sleeping Bear Dunes, Pictured Rocks and Isle Royale) and state parks into the conversation. We also talk about the European-style of Ann Arbor, the quirks of John Harvey Kellogg and the unusual location of Edison’s New Jersey lab (moved by Henry Ford to Michigan).

Laurie VanderPloeg, a longtime special education administrator, will take over the office of special education programs starting in November.

Klebsiella species are problematic pathogens in neonatal units and may cause outbreaks, for which the sources of transmission may be challenging to elucidate. We describe the use of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to investigate environmental sources of transmission during an outbreak of extended-spectrum-β-lactamase (ESBL)-producing Klebsiella michiganensis colonizing neonates. Ceftriaxone-resistant Klebsiella spp. isolated from neonates (or their mothers) and the hospital environment were included. Short-read sequencing (Illumina) and long-read sequencing (MinION; Oxford Nanopore Technologies) were used to confirm species taxonomy, to identify antimicrobial resistance genes, and to determine phylogenetic relationships using single-nucleotide polymorphism profiling. A total of 21 organisms (10 patient-derived isolates and 11 environmental isolates) were sequenced. Standard laboratory methods identified the outbreak strain as an ESBL-producing Klebsiella oxytoca, but taxonomic assignment from WGS data suggested closer identity to Klebsiella michiganensis. Strains isolated from multiple detergent-dispensing bottles were either identical or closely related by single-nucleotide polymorphism comparison. Detergent bottles contaminated by K. michiganensis had been used for washing milk expression equipment. No new cases were identified once the detergent bottles were removed. Environmental reservoirs may be an important source in outbreaks of multidrug-resistant organisms. WGS, in conjunction with traditional epidemiological investigation, can be instrumental in revealing routes of transmission and guiding infection control responses.
