*MDR+FQ resistance=multi drug resistance (to amoxicillin, chloramphenicol, and co-trimoxazole) plus fluoroquinolone resistance (to ciprofloxacin).

†Among 1025 cases with known travel history or close link to a known traveller tested for ciprofloxacin resistance.

‡Among 1024 with known travel history or close link to a known traveller tested for resistance all four antimicrobials.
