Incidence of resistance to different antimicrobials tested against S. pneumoniae and H. influenzae isolates by country, utilizing NCCLS (10) interpretative criteria. In order by country, the numbers of S. pneumoniae and H. influenzae isolates and the percentage that was H. influenzae β-lactamase positive were as follows: Brazil (448, 274/10.6%), China (214, 198/10.6%), France (547, 454/5.6%), Germany (560, 639/6.9%), Hong Kong (175, 178/27.5%), Ireland (17, 37/10.8%), Italy (491, 521/10.6%), Mexico (271, 226/17.7%), South Africa (701, 627/7.3%), South Korea (351, 272/60.7%), Spain (492, 559/20.9%), Thailand (206, 305/45.5%), and the United Kingdom (542, 556/11.3%).
