Animal risk to humans

While antimicrobial resistance and its potential transmission to humans from farm animals is a concern, most resistant bacteria in people and animals are different except for food-poisoning organisms such as salmonella and campylobacter. For example, tests on almost 750 resistant gene (ESBL) samples across five European countries indicated farm animal use was potentially associated with as few as 1 in every 370 human clinical cases with E. coli infections.
