Antimicrobial Susceptibility of Respiratory Isolates From Homeless Population in An Urban Environment

Resistance to ATB from respiratory isolates of homeless residents with symptoms of URTI in 2012 - 2017 were analyzed. Resistance was tested in years 2008, 2012 and 2016 with no major resistance patterns found. MRSA resistance was less than 5% and PR less than 3% of all isolates. Despite majority of...

Zusammenfassung:Resistance to ATB from respiratory isolates of homeless residents with symptoms of URTI in 2012 - 2017 were analyzed. Resistance was tested in years 2008, 2012 and 2016 with no major resistance patterns found. MRSA resistance was less than 5% and PR less than 3% of all isolates. Despite majority of increasing population is not vaccinated against H. influenza and St. pneumonia, influenza, no major ID outbreaks were present and no case of TB was noted.
