“…Older patients, not the population with cystitis, are particularly involved. The problem was recognised in two Shropshire hospitals and their associated primary-care communities in April 2003, but retrospectively was identified as having started in January, with earlier cases in the West Midland region dating back to 2002 [15]. The problem involved four of five related serotype O:25 clade B2 strains with CTX-M-15 ESBLs, that were simultaneously appearing elsewhere in the UK, e.g.…”

Control of infection classically involves hand and healthcare hygiene, reduction of selective and ineffective chemotherapy, reduction of invasive procedures and achlorhydria and adequate staffing, along with appropriate containment and concentration of patients. Investigation and control of any continuing sources of infection in food and water supplies is important also, as is recognition of individuals carrying high-risk strains and species. The onset of infection may be distant from the time of acquisition and may critically affect epidemiological assessment of control points. Carriage may be prolonged, increasing the likelihood of recurrent infection and exacerbating the difficulty of control. Mortality associated with resistance is difficult to assess retrospectively and may not be high, complicating analysis of the success or failure of control measures.

“…The patient tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 (March 27, 2020), although unable to exhibit “travel history” or express recognizable “who she met while she was there.” 1 Also, no early symptoms of sore throat, cough, aches, shortness of breath, and anosmia, indeed COVID-19 pneumonia, may correctly be described as a confounding virus, COVID-19.…”

This study presented a case of coronavirus disease 2019 pneumonia in a patient in isolation for 103 days. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 was positive in her last 4 days. Despite policies of temperature checks for employees and visitors, and employees facing patients wearing a mask, the transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 from an asymptomatic carrier was inevitable.
