Data on Salmonella and Campylobacter bacteria from people and food-producing animals show high levels of resistance to commonly used antibiotics.
The new detection comes just a week after the CDC warned health providers about a rise in imported measles cases.
State health officials have identified 14 people with campylobacteriosis, 12 of whom have consumed raw milk products.
The percentage of resistant infections increased by 21% for ciprofloxacin and by 27% for erythromycin.
An opt-out protocol for antibiotic de-escalation in patients with suspected sepsis resulted in more antibiotic discontinuations and less exposure to broad-spectrum antibiotics, with no evidence of harm, according to the results of a randomized controlled trial published today in Clinical Infectious Diseases.
An increase in resistance to ciprofloxacin among poultry isolates was primarily due to Salmonella Infantis.
A large-scale analysis reveals that the prevalence of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has remained stable for Campylobacter in the United States and United Kingdom in recent years, suggesting that antibiotic stewardship efforts have not made a large impact, according to a new study in Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy.
Of 1,061 people who were hesitant about receiving the COVID-19 vaccine at the end of 2020, 32% were at least partially vaccinated by spring 2021, and 37% said they were likely to be, according to a research letter published today in JAMA Network Open.
XDR Campylobacter cases might stem from improper antibiotic use in the commercial dog industry.
The COVID-19 B117 strain, which was first identified in the United Kingdom, has similar aerosol stability compared with three other COVID strains, so transmissibility differences are most likely due to other factors, according to a study last week in The Journal of Infectious Diseases.
