Nov 21, 2023 · Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the top global public health and development threats. It is estimated that bacterial AMR was directly responsible for 1.27 million global deaths in 2019 and contributed to 4.95 million deaths (1). The misuse and overuse of antimicrobials in humans, animals and plants are the main drivers in the ...
ResistanceMap is a collection of tools summarizing national and subnational data on antimicrobial use and resistance around the world. Since its launch in 2010, ResistanceMap has helped inform researchers, policy makers and the public of important trends in drug resistance and antibiotic use. In 2015, ResistanceMap re-launched with a new design ...

Feb 23, 2021 · Abstract. Antibiotic resistance is a global problem which affects human health. The imprudent use of antibiotics (medicine, agriculture, aquaculture, and food industry) has resulted in the broader dissemination of resistance. Urban wastewater & sewage treatment plants act as the hotspot for the widespread of antimicrobial resistance.
