FDA, in conjunction with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Food Safety and Inspection Service, has released the National Antimicrobial Resistance Monitoring System (NARMS) Integrated Summary 2019\. An FDA [statement](https://www.fda.gov/animal-veterinary/cvm-updates/fda-releases-narms-integrated-summary-2019?ref=fdaweb.com) says the summary combines antimicrobial resistance data in bacteria isolated from humans, raw retail meats, and animals at slaughter to examine trends in resistance to the most important antimicrobial agents.

The 2019 report indicates that 78% of *Salmonella* isolates collected from humans were not resistant to any of the antimicrobials tested under NARMS. In humans, it says, the overall level of resistance remains relatively unchanged from 2018 and is in line with other data from 2006 to 2017.

Although the overall level of *Salmonella* resistance remains steady in NARMS samples, the report says, resistance patterns have changed within specific serotypes.
