[ILRI] A longitudinal study titled ‘Prevalence and transmission of cefotaxime resistant Escherichia coli (ESBL-EC) in broiler poultry farms in Wakiso, Uganda’ to investigate antimicrobial use (AMU) and exposure risks to antimicrobial resistance (AMR) in the peri-urban district of Wakiso, Uganda, found that many farmers do not implement adequate biosecurity measures to prevent the introduction and spread of pathogens both within and outside their farms. Conducted from March to September 2024 across 20 farms in six sub-counties, the study found average biosecurity scores of 57% for internal measures, 27% for external measures and 39% overall.
