Drug-resistant Salmonella found in poultry supply raises food safety concern

Researchers sequenced antibiotic-resistant Salmonella bacteria from a duck carcass, revealing how drug-resistant pathogens circulate through the food chain. The finding underscores growing risks to public health and food producers as resistance spreads through livestock—a trend that could drive up costs for food safety oversight and medical treatment of infections.
