    Abstract: In infancy most common and a serious disease is known as Urinary tract infection (UTI). The aim of the current study is to evaluate the frequency and antibiotic resistant among infant presenting with UTI in Lahore General hospital, Lahore-Pakistan. The current observational study comprised 100 (n=100) cases diagnosed with UTI. The study was conducted at Lahore General Hospital, Pakistan, between March 2019 and January 2020.

The most common gram-negative bacilli (GNB) causing UTI was E. coli constitute about 72% followed by Klebsiella (11%), Enterobacter (7%) and Enterococcus (4%). Most of the isolated pathogens are highly resistant to ampicillin, cotrimoxazole, and cephalexin (72%–95%), have intermediate sensitivity to third- generation cephalosporins, and high sensitivity to amikacin, nitrofurantoin and ciprofloxacin. Similarly, the other pathogens showed different degree of occurrence and resistance against empirically used antibiotics. The most prevalent UTI causative organism among children was E. coli.

Thematic analysis was done to interpret the results, the interpretational skills of researchers and qualitative research data software MAXQDA 2020 was used. Results: The study clearly indicates that myths regarding COVID and its vaccination do exist among masses in Pakistan. However, their level of intensity and form varies among different social strata.
