Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a pressing global health issue where microorganisms like bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites develop resistance to the medications used to treat them. This phenomenon poses a significant threat to public health, making infections harder to treat and increasing the risk of illness, severe complications, and death. Overuse and misuse of antibiotics in humans, animals, and agriculture contribute to the acceleration of AMR. Combatting this challenge requires a multifaceted approach, including responsible antibiotic use, better hygiene practices, development of new antibiotics, and global collaboration among healthcare sectors. Addressing antimicrobial resistance is crucial to preserving the effectiveness of existing treatments and ensuring our ability to fight infectious diseases effectively in the future.
