In Europe, systematic national surveillance of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in food-producing animals has been conducted for decades; however, geographic distribution within countries remains unknown. To determine distribution within Europe, we combined 33,802 country-level AMR prevalence estimates with 2,849 local AMR prevalence estimates from 209 point prevalence surveys across 31 countries. We produced geospatial models of AMR prevalence in Escherichia coli, nontyphoidal Salmonella, and Campylobacter for cattle, pigs, and poultry. We summarized AMR trends by using the proportion of tested antimicrobial compounds with resistance >50% and generated predictive maps at 10 × 10 km resolution that disaggregated AMR prevalence. For E. coli, predicted prevalence rates were highest in southern Romania and southern/eastern Italy; for Salmonella, southern Hungary and central Poland; and for Campylobacter, throughout Spain. Our findings suggest that AMR distribution is heterogeneous within countries and that surveillance data from below the country level could help with prioritizing resources to reduce AMR.
A person in Scotland has died from E. coli, following an outbreak of the bacterial infection in the UK linked to cheese.
Health experts warned a few days ago that some products in the Mrs Kirkham’s range might be contaminated and should be recalled as a precaution.
It is not clear yet whether the death was caused by food.
Officials say investigations are continuing into any common links between cases and the recalled cheeses.

The affected products are being recalled from the marketplace due to possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination.
Food contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes may not look or smell spoiled but can still make you sick. Symptoms can include vomiting, nausea, persistent fever, muscle aches, severe headache and neck stiffness. Pregnant women, the elderly and people with weakened immune systems are particularly at risk. Although infected pregnant women may experience only mild, flu-like symptoms, the infection can lead to premature delivery, infection of the newborn or even stillbirth. In severe cases of illness, people may die. |

| The Spanish Agency for Food Safety and Nutrition (AESAN) announces the withdrawal of the alert due to the presence of Salmonella in frozen cooked crabs from Ireland (Ref. ES2023/306).
After carrying out new investigations and analyzes with satisfactory results for the detection of Salmonella in the batch that is the subject of the alert, the authorities of the Xunta de Galicia have determined that there are no reasons that justify maintaining the alert. |
After the initial notification made by the authorities of the Autonomous Community of Madrid following the precautionary principle on November 24, 2023, the AESAN published an alert for the presence of Salmonella in frozen cooked crabs of the Pescanova brand, batch 40224 and date of expiration before the end of 10/2024.
Based on the investigations carried out and the performance of new analyzes for the detection of Salmonella on the batch that is the subject of the alert, all of them with satisfactory results, the authorities of the Xunta de Galicia have determined that there are no reasons to justify that the product may pose a risk to the health of the population.
For this reason, the alert has been withdrawn and communicated through the Coordinated System for Rapid Information Exchange (SCIRI), so that all contact points are aware.
