Researchers supported by FAPESP have found antibiotic-resistant bacterial clones in wild birds at a rehabilitation center. The identified Escherichia coli clones have been found in community- and hospital-acquired human infections worldwide, and [...]

Researchers supported by FAPESP have found antibiotic-resistant bacterial clones in wild birds at a rehabilitation center.
The identified Escherichia coli clones have been found in community- and hospital-acquired human infections worldwide, and they were present in the intestinal tracts of a vulture and an owl.
The impact of these strains on animals is unknown; however, in humans, they are known to cause infections in patients with weakened immune systems for which there are few [...]

Researchers have identified antibiotic-resistant bacteria in wild birds at a rehabilitation center. The strains of Escherichia coli found are linked to both community and hospital infections in humans across the globe. Samples were taken from the intestinal tracts of a vulture and an owl.
While the effects of these bacteria on wildlife are unclear, they pose serious risks to humans, especially those with weakened immune systems. The research has been published in the journal Veterinary [...]
