Current Summary - 2021 NARMS Update: Integrated Report Summary

Data

NARMS gathers surveillance data from human clinical samples, animal slaughter samples and retail meat samples. This approach to integrated surveillance provides information needed to assess the nature and magnitude of resistance in bacteria moving through the food supply and causing illnesses in humans. The NARMS interactive data dashboards found below allow the user to explore data in different ways.

  • NARMS Now: Integrated Data – Compare antimicrobial resistance in bacteria from animals, retail meats and humans (updated weekly).

Note: Users who create their own estimates using these data should cite the National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System (NARMS) as the source of the original data. The data in these tables and displays are not confidential. Additional information on sampling and testing methodologies can be found on the NARMS Resources webpage.
