Multi drug resistant (MDR) prevalence per age group and source population. Each panel depicts MDR prevalence per age group. Columns depict the cumulative MDR rate in each age group, per patient nationality. The color specifications depict the time from hospital admission to first identification of MDR bacteria. Palestinian patients were found to have the highest rates of MDR bacteria in all age groups. Among patients up to 40 years old, foreign tourists had higher MDR rates than Israeli patients. In the older age groups, MDR rates were lower among foreign tourists. In most age groups about half of MDR bacteria were identified in the first 96 hours after admission.
