"We found significantly more ESBL bacteria in pigs on farms with high consumption of cephalosporins compared with herds in the same period had a consumption of these antibiotics. So there is a connection, "said senior researcher Yvonne Agersø from the National Food Institute...
...70 infected with ESBL last year
Since January 1, 2014, Statens Serum Institut monitored the number of blood poisoning caused by ESBL bacteria. In the first four months, SSI has received 70 reviews of blood poisoning caused by ESBL bacteria.
