Carbapenem Resistance in Gram-Negative Bacteria: The Not-So-Little Problem in the Little Red Dot

Carbapenem Resistance in Gram-Negative Bacteria: The Not-So-Little Problem in the Little Red Dot

Singapore is an international travel and medical hub and faces a genuine threat for import and dissemination of bacteria with broad-spectrum resistance. In this review, we described the current landscape and management of carbapenem resistance in Gram-negative bacteria (GNB) in Singapore. Notably, t...
