World Antimicrobial Awareness Week 2022

by

World Health Organization (WHO) published this video item, entitled “World Antimicrobial Awareness Week 2022” – below is their description.

World Antimicrobial Awareness Week (18-24 November) focuses on the urgent actions needed to stop antimicrobial resistance (AMR), which contributes to more than 5 million deaths from bacterial infections alone each year. Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites no longer respond to antimicrobial agents. As a result of drug resistance, antibiotics and other antimicrobial agents become ineffective and infections become difficult or impossible to treat, increasing the risk of disease spread, severe illness and death.
