Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is the ability of a microorganism (e.g., a bacterium, a virus, or a parasite) to resist the action of one or more antimicrobial agents or antibiotics. Levels of antibiotic consumption consistently correlate with levels of antibiotic resistance, i.e. the more an antibiotic is used, the more resistant the bacteria can become. As a result, antibiotics will not be able to treat infections any longer. Antimicrobial resistance is one of the most serious threats to public health glob

Raising patient awareness about AMR and healthcare-associated infections to help reduce antibiotic misuse.
