Antimicrobial resistance in nontyphoidal Salmonella associated with multistate outbreaks linked to backyard poultry, United States, 2018–2023
Introduction State and local health departments and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) routinely investigate multistate outbreaks of salmonellosis associated with backyard poultry (BYP). Here, we describe antimicrobial resistance in multistate outbreaks of nontyphoidal salmonellosis associated with BYP from 2018 to 2023. Methods We analyzed patient and outbreak data from CDC’s National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System …
First Known Report of mcr-Harboring Enterobacteriaceae in the Dominican Republic
Colistin is a last-resort antibiotic used to treat infections caused by multidrug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria. People with a history of travel to the Dominican Republic have become sick with pathogenic bacteria carrying the mobile colistin resistance gene, mcr -1, during and after traveling. This investigation aimed to identify mcr genes in Enterobacteriaceae isolated from food animal sources in the Dominican Republic. Three hundred and elev…
Mild Botulism From Illicitly Brewed Alcohol in a Large Prison Outbreak in Mississippi
Botulism is typically described as a rapidly progressing, severe neuroparalytic disease. Foodborne botulism is transmitted through consuming food or drink that has been contaminated with botulinum toxin. During a botulism outbreak linked to illicitly brewed alcohol (also known as “hooch” or “pruno”) in a prison, 11 (35%) of 31 inmates that consumed contaminated hooch had mild illnesses. This includes 2 inmates with laboratory confirmed botulism. …
