A Multicountry Molecular Analysis of<i>Salmonella enterica</i>Serovar Typhi With Reduced Susceptibility to Ciprofloxacin in Sub-Saharan Africa

Abstract

Salmonella Typhi with reduced susceptibility to ciprofloxacin was not distributed homogenously throughout SSA. Its prevalence was very high in Kenya, and was not observed in other study countries. Continuous monitoring of antimicrobial susceptibility is required to follow the potential spread of antimicrobial-resistant isolates throughout SSA.
