Abstract

Salmonella entericaserovar Goldcoast infection was rare in Taiwan; it was not detected in routine surveillance from 2004 to 2013. This serovar was first identified in 2014, but the frequency of infection remained low until 2017. From 2014 to 2016, all but one isolate was pan-susceptible. S. Goldcoast infections abruptly increased in 2018, and all isolates were multidrug-resistant (MDR).
