Share of invasive E. coli resistant to 3rd-generation cephalosporins in Europe 2022
E. coli is the first cause for community-acquired bloodstream infection and urinary infection. As of 2022, resistance to third-generation cephalosporin antibiotics was more common in southern and eastern countries in Europe. Bulgaria was the country where E. coli recorded the highest resistance to third-generation cephalosporins, with over ** percent. This statistic displays the percentage of invasive Escherichia coli isolates resistant to third-generation cephalosporin antibiotics in Europe in 2022, by country.
