Draft Genome Sequences of Corynebacterium diphtheriae Clinical Isolates from Colombia.

ABSTRACT: Since the implementation of the diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (DTP) vaccine in Colombia, there has been a decrease in the reporting of cases. Here, we report two isolates of Corynebacterium diphtheriae bv. mitis isolated in the reference laboratory at Instituto Nacional de Salud from samples received from Norte de Santander and La Guajira; both areas are located on the northeast border of Colombia.
