NEW SET OF POLICIES APRIL 2023
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a significant, and growing, and a threat to public health in the UK and around the world. AMR has been identified as one of the most pressing global challenges this century. In 2019, there were 4.95 million deaths associated with bacterial AMR across 204 countries, and 1.27 million of those were directly attributed, leading the World Health Organisation (WHO) to declare it one of the top 10 global public health threats.
