Tracking the Evolution and Antibiotic Resistance Patterns of Streptococcus pneumoniae in Indian Adult Populations through High-Throughput Genome Sequencing

The risk of dying was 8.75 times higher (95% CI: 8.38, 9.14) in the 30 days following a physician visit or hospitalization.Discussion: The risks of sequelae and mortality is comparable regardless of whether individuals had a laboratory-confirmed, reported infection.These findings are consistent with those reported by others, demonstrating the validity of using administrative health data to investigate sequelae of infections. Conclusion:The burden of illness related to enteric infections is greater than that related to the acute infection.Multisectoral public health actions and patient education are therefore important to prevent enteric infections and their sequelae.
