Antimicrobial resistance in Europe
The visualised data show the resistance of Salmonella, E. Coli and Campylobacter in food,
animals and humans, country by country from 2019.
If no data are presented for single countries, it means that none or fewer than 10 resistant bacteria
were reported. It does not mean absence of resistance.
The countries monitoring and reporting are the EU Member States, Iceland, Norway and Switzerland.
Resistance data based on fewer than 10 bacteria are not presented in the data viz.
Monitoring for calves is only mandatory for certain Member States.
The monitoring of AMR in
Salmonella from pigs and calves under one year of age, as well as in Campylobacter coli from
fattening pigs is performed voluntarily by MSs
