Antimicrobial Resistance

Antimicrobial resistance is a public health threat that occurs when microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites become resistant to existing antimicrobial medicines. This increasing resistance to antimicrobials such as antibiotics and antivirals can lead to the spread of diseases such as tuberculosis and HIV, making them difficult to treat. Antimicrobial resistance can be decreased through individual efforts such as proper handwashing, not sharing medications, and responsible use of antibiotics, as well as through public health initiatives such as promoting the development of novel antimicrobials and increasing access to clean water and sanitation. Antimicrobial resistance is a pressing global health challenge, and efforts must be taken now to ensure that future generations can benefit from the life-saving power of antimicrobial medicines.
