(Description) Figure 5 Resistance (%) in Escherichia coli from pigs in Sweden, 1995–2019. Clinical isolates from faecal samples or from samples taken post-mortem from the gastro-intestinal tract (Aspevall et al., 2020).

Resistance to ampicillin rose from approximately 8% in 1995 to 42% in 2019; trimethoprim-sulphamethoxazole increased from approximately 15% in 1995 to approximately 38% in 2019. Resistance to tetracycline was 30% in 1995 and just under 30% in 2019, despite falling to just over 10% in 2016.
