Centers harboring dozens of severe burn victims are prone to develop pandemics with known pathogens. Surveillance culturing or burn site screening are important for the alertness for such a condition. Even endogenous microorganisms such as Pseudomonas and Acinetobacter spp. are routinely expected to encounter in screening cultures, unexpected or unfamiliar pathogens should make us for bizarre conditions.
