Spanish Study Reveals Eightfold Increase in Multi-Drug Resistant Bacteria Deaths
A Spanish study, involving 130 hospitals, reveals that deaths from multi-drug resistant bacteria in 2023 were 24,000—eight times higher than previous estimates—with urinary tract infections being most frequent, but pneumonia having the highest mortality rate. Almost half of infections were hospital-...
