The global public health concern for the antibiotic resistance is not a future issue; it is happening right now in every region of the world and has the potential to affect anyone, of any age, in any part of the world. New WHO reports, with data from 114 countries provides the ...
As long as antibiotics have existed, so too has antibiotic resistance—the inevitable result as infectious bacteria continually evolve to evade the very drugs designed to kill them. Today, antibiotic resistance is considered a major global health threat. In the United States, The Centers for Disease...
Antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) have accelerated microbial threats to human health in the last decade. Many genes can confer resistance, but evaluating the relative health risks of ARGs is complex. Factors such as the abundance, propensity for lateral transmission and ability of ARGs to be expre...

Antibioticresistance is recognised as a major global threat topublic healthby the World Health Organization. Currently, several hundred thousand deaths yearly can be attributed to infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The major driver for the development ofantibioticresistance is considered to be ...
Professor Paul Cosford, medical director at PHE, said: "Antibiotic resistance is not a distant threat, but is in fact one of the most dangerous global crises facing the modern world today. "Taking antibiotics when you don't need them puts you and your family at risk of developing i...
Antibiotic resistance is an urgent threat to global health, and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) considers it one of their top public health concerns.The rates of resistance to antibiotics continue to rise due to overuse of antibiotics, and new antimicrobial agents are ...
can cope with the bacterial resistance of recent years. Organizations such as the Wellcome Trust and GARPD advocate internationally for the promotion of R&D for the development of new treatments, however the results have not yet allowed to solve the current threat represented by the resistance. ...
Antimicrobial resistance is widely recognised as a global threat to human health. This paper explores the mobilisation of biomedical concepts and technologies within local semantic registers and addresses the implications of translation and knowledge complexity for attempts to mitigate the problem of antibio...
