The CDC reports a nearly 70% increase in cases of drug-resistant 'nightmare bacteria' in the US from 2019 to 2023, driven mainly by bacteria with the NDM gene, which are difficult to treat and may lead to community spread, highlighting a concerning rise in antimicrobial resistance exacerbated by increased antibiotic use during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Cases of drug-resistant 'nightmare bacteria' in the U.S. have increased nearly 70% from 2019 to 2023, driven mainly by bacteria with the NDM gene, which are difficult to treat and may lead to community spread and more chronic infections, raising significant public health concerns.
Infection rates from drug-resistant 'nightmare bacteria' with the NDM gene have increased nearly 70% in the US from 2019 to 2023, driven by limited treatment options and increased antibiotic use during the COVID-19 pandemic, posing a significant public health threat.
The CDC reports a nearly 70% increase in cases of drug-resistant 'nightmare bacteria' in the U.S. from 2019 to 2023, driven mainly by bacteria with the NDM gene, which are difficult to treat and could lead to community spread and more chronic infections. The rise is partly attributed to increased antibiotic use during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the actual number of cases is likely underestimated due to limited testing.
