Surveillance of antimicrobial resistant Shiga toxin-producing E. coli O157:H7 in England, 2016 –2020

ConclusionsAMR genes were unevenly distributed across the different sub-lineages of STEC O157:H7 and between different clades within the same sub-lineage. Long-read sequencing facilitates tracking the transmission of AMR at the pathogen and mobile genetic element level.
