Increased Diversity and Introduction of Multidrug-Resistant Strains of Neisseria gonorrhoeae Following Cessation of COVID-19 Pandemic-Related Travel Restrictions: An Observational Genomic Epidemiologic Study.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: National and international travel drives the spread of antimicrobial resistance in high-priority pathogens, including Neisseria gonorrhoeae. Border closures and travel restrictions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic had wide-reaching impacts on infectious disease epidemiology, including the transmission and genomic diversity of N gonorrhoeae. However, less is known about N gonorrhoeae population...
