Abstract:
Community fecal carriage of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacterales in 637 French children (6-24 months) was 0.5%, with no typical risk factors identified (antibiotics, hospitalization, recent travel). Of note, one isolate of Escherichia coli ST38 with blaOXA-244 and blaCTX-M-27 belonging to a clonal group with high diffusion was found, highlighting the need for enhanced surveillance.
