Beijing. January 30. Silkroadnews - Salmonella spp, E.coli and S.aureus developed resistance to antibiotics, the Kazakh Telegraph Agency (KazTAG) reports with reference to the UN press service.
Among bacteria reported resistant to antibiotics there are E.coli, Salmonella, Staphylococcus aureus and other pathogens of pneumonia, meningitis and a number of dangerous diseases, the report said on Monday.
The UN noted, the data provided by the World Health Organization (WHO) have been obtained using WHO’s Global Antimicrobial Surveillance System.
“Some of the world’s most common – and potentially most dangerous – infections are proving drug-resistant. And most worrying of all, pathogens don’t respect national borders. WHO is encouraging all countries to set up good surveillance systems for detecting drug resistance that can provide data to this global system,” Dr. Marc Sprenger, director of WHO’s Antimicrobial Resistance Secretariat, said.
According to WHO, to date, only 52 countries are enrolled in WHO’s Global Antimicrobial Surveillance System.
