Draft genomes of 10 isolates collected in Sudan in 2019.

This report presents the first genomes from positive cases of cholera in Sudan. Genomic analysis of 10 isolates, profiled as serogroup O1, reveals evidence of antimicrobial resistance genes and a 139-kb IncC plasmid with 99.74% identity to the multidrug-resistant plasmid pCNRVC190243 previously reported in Yemen and Lebanon.
