Bivalves are filter-feeding animals and markers of bacterial pollution. We report a massive spread ofbla CTX-M-15 through dominantEscherichia coli andKlebsiella pneumoniae lineages and/or plasmid subtypes (F31:A4:B1) as well as the presence of OXA-23-producingAcinetobacter baumannii sequence type 2 (ST2) in seafood, highlighting a direct risk for the consumer.
