Antimicrobial resistance is invisible - I am not. (IMAGE)
Caption
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) has an impact on people lives.
The situation with antimicrobial resistance is getting worse, and new bacterial strains are emerging that are resistant to several antibiotics at the same time (known as multidrug-resistant bacteria). A major antimicrobial resistance problem, especially in hospitals, is the emergence of bacteria that are resistant to last-line antimicrobials, which severely limits treatment options for infected patients. Such bacteria may eventually become resistant to all existing antimicrobials.
AMR is invisible, but the patients are not.
