Analysis
Japan recorded 19.08 for proportion of isolates with decreased susceptibility or resistance in 2018.
The figure is down 10.1% on the previous year and down 6.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, proportion of isolates with decreased susceptibility or resistance in Japan peaked at 25.08 in 2015 and was at its lowest, 0, in 2010.
That places Japan 2nd out of 51 countries with data for 2018, putting it in the top 10%.
