Strains of antibiotic-resistant bacteria have become more and more prevalent. This has attracted the attention of health agencies worldwide, leading to an urgent search for mechanisms to put a stop to this phenomenon. This study focuses on estimating the probability of a person in Ecuador (at potential risk) contracting an infection due to ampicillin-resistant through the consumption of Escherichia coli contaminated water, for which a residence area of people was considered in urban or rural areas. The analysis was carried out using the Bayes Theorem and the results show that in the rural population the probability of contracting an infection of this kind is 8.41% whilst in the urban area the probability is 3.57%. These results show an urgent need to provide safe water sources to the population, as well as to instigate an environmental legislation reform that allows for controlling the release of emerging pollutants, including antibiotics.

“…Se adquiere principalmente a través de alimentos y bebidas una disminución de las capacidades del contingente, poniendo en riesgo el correcto desempeño de la misión, lo que se corrobora en diversos estudios de campo en escenarios austeros, tácticos y de combate, donde no siempre se disponen de todos los medios logísticos, de infraestructuras ni de recursos sanitarios (29)(30)(31), llegando incluso a situaciones en que se somete al combatiente a situaciones extremas que desencadenan respuestas psicológicas y físicas que incluyen la diarrea (32).

The main mission of the Military Pharmacy is the maintenance of the operational force deployed in missions. To this end, after the study of the Request of the Spanish Armed Forces (FFAA), it was decided to modernize the traditional loperamide tablets to the pharmaceutical form of orodispersible tablets. This change, as well as the technological manufacturing process, has been possible thanks to advances in manufacturing and control equipment and modern excipients. Military pharmacists upgrade to a combatant-friendly dosage form in all deployment situations, including initial ones where access to water is engaged. The manufacture by direct compression and the use of superdisintegrants allows savings in production time and cost and, thanks to its immediate release from the pharmaceutical form, increases the efficacy and rapidity of the drug’s effects. For these reasons, constant updating to the state of the science allows for the total availability of the operational force in tactical deployments without temporary casualties of specialists that are difficult to replace and their cohesion in modern combat groups.
