Neisseria gonorrhoeae antimicrobial susceptibility trends in Bangkok, Thailand, 2015-21: Enhanced Gonococcal Antimicrobial Surveillance Programme (EGASP).

A continuous high susceptibility to ceftriaxone, Thailand's first-line gonorrhoea treatment, was found. However, the increasing MICs of ceftriaxone, cefixime and azithromycin are a substantial threat, especially considering these are the last remaining options for the treatment of gonorrhoea. To monitor AMR, continuous and quality-assured gonococcal AMR surveillance such as the Thai WHO/CDC EGASP, ideally including WGS, is imperative globally.
