    (CDC, 2024-11-11) Byarugaba, Denis K.; Osman, Tamer S.; Sayyouh, Omar M.; Wokorach, Godfrey; Kigen, Collins K.; Muturi, James W.; Onyonyi, Vanessa N.; Said, Mayar M.; Nasrat, Salwa A.; Gazo, Mahmoud; Erima, Bernard; Alafi, Stephen; Kabatesi, Hope O.; Wabwire-Mangen, Fred; Kibuuka, Hannah; Sapre, Anjali P.; Bartlett, Katelyn V.; Lebreton, Francois; Martin, Melissa J.; Mahugu, Evelyn W.; Smith, Hunter J.; Musila, Lillian A.
    Surveillance of antimicrobial resistance in Kenya, Uganda, and Jordan identified multidrug-resistant high-risk bacterial clones: Escherichia coli sequence types 131, 1193, 69, 167, 10, 648, 410, 405 and Klebsiella pneumoniae sequence types 14, 147, 307, 258. Clones emerging in those countries exhibited high resistance mechanism diversity, highlighting a serious threat for multidrug resistance.
