“…This study is in line with a systematic review and meta-analysis of 171 DHS of 70 low and middle income countries worldwide from 1984 to 2007 and a study done in Ethiopia [ 23 , 24 ]. The reason may be due to the fact poor sanitation poor quality of source drinking like polluted with Escherichia coli can affect children’s health and nutritional status via a variety of mechanisms such as repeated episode of diarrhea, parasites, environmental enteropathy and other possible ways that restrict nutrient uptake and absorption [ 63 ].…”

Resistant strains of E. coli such as those producing ESBLs are very common globally.…”
