Clinical data associated with the manuscript, "Low Prevalence of Conjunctival Infection with Chlamydia trachomatis in a Treatment-Naïve Trachoma-Endemic Region of the Solomon Islands". Sequence data used in phylogenetic analysis are available from GenBank. All chromosome sequences were mapped to the C. trachomatis A/HAR/13 reference sequence (GenBank accession number: CP000051.1) and plasmid sequences mapped to B/Jali/20 reference sequence (GenBank accession number: FM865436.1).

| Description of data capture | We conducted a population-based trachoma prevalence survey of 3674 individuals from two Solomon Islands provinces. Participants were examined for clinical signs of trachoma. Conjunctival swabs were collected from all children aged 1–9 years. We tested swabs for Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) DNA using droplet digital PCR. Chlamydial DNA from positive swabs was enriched and sequenced for use in phylogenetic analysis. |
