However, this report predates the COVID-19 pandemic and it is unclear what the impact will be on MDR infections globally. There are reports of a high use of broad-spectrum antibiotics in the hospital setting, recognised as a risk factor for hospital-acquired infections (HAI) with MDR organisms [2] [3] [4] . Equally, wider recognition of the importance of nosocomial infections, with stricter hygiene policies, high use of PPE, and patients being cared for in new temporary hospitals, could all mitigate against this threat [2, 3] .
