Investigation of an outbreak of carbapenem resistant Acinetobacter baumannii in an intensive care unit during the COVID-19 epidemic
The infection control measures for COVID-19 conflicted with basic MDRO prevention and control strategies, likely contributing to the outbreak. Therefore, established infection prevention and control measures should be consistently followed, as they represent the most effective approach to preventing MDRO.
