The Rising Threat of Antimicrobial Resistance: Global Perspectives
Received Date: Jul 02, 2024 / Published Date: Jul 30, 2024
Abstract
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) represents a growing and multifaceted threat to global health, posing significant challenges to the treatment of infectious diseases. This abstract explores the rising threat of AMR from a global perspective, emphasizing its causes, consequences, and potential solutions. AMR arises primarily due to the overuse and misuse of antibiotics and other antimicrobial agents in humans, animals, and agriculture. The spread of resistant pathogens leads to increased morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs, exacerbating existing health disparities. The global nature of AMR requires coordinated international efforts, including improved surveillance, stewardship programs, and the development of novel therapeutics. Addressing AMR necessitates a multi-sectoral approach, integrating public health, policy-making, and community engagement to curb its impact and safeguard the efficacy of current and future antimicrobial treatments.
