Thank you to Andrew for his very thought provoking keynote address @EPAResearchNews @AREST_AMR @PublicHealth_A #AMR
Andrew Singer@OxonAndrew15 Jun 2023
Delighted to attend and commence the @AREST_AMR public engagement/project end meeting — Dearbhaile Morris and her large consortium should be very proud of their many high quality outputs that speak to #AMR, the environment and human health!

Our @DESIGN_UCC study on #STEC in Irish private wells is available now in @STOTEN_journal 🥳 Huge thanks & congrats to all co-authors! Thanks to all well owner volunteers & to @EPAResearchNews for funding! Our work continues with @GalwayDERIVE project doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.…
Highlights of study: 52 groundwater wells were sampled in western ireland Shiga toxigenic E. coli (STEC) was detecgted in 19.2% of wells and in 40% of wells where E. coli was present. Multiple clinically relevant STEC serogroups were detected in wells with 20 cfu/100 mL E. coli or more Risk factors for well contamination with STEC were increased 30 day mean antecedent rainfall, decreasing well depth and increasing septic tank density
