Non-susceptibility in gram-negative bacteria, 2012 CONCLUSION

Methicillin resistance in S. aureus has continued to fall since 2009 but not as steeply as between 2006 and 2008.
ESBLs and ciprofloxacin resistance in E.coli have risen again, from a trough around 2009-2010.
Resistance rates are still low in S. pneumoniae; changing patterns may reflect selective pressure from vaccines.
