It's World AMR Awareness Week (WAAW), marked from 18-24 November every year to improve awareness and understanding of antimicrobial resistance. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) happens when microorganisms (such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, and parasites) develop the ability to continue to grow, even when they are exposed to antimicrobial medicines that are meant to kill them or limit their growth (such as antibiotics, antifungals, antivirals, antimalarials, and anthelmintics). As a result, the medicines become ineffective and infections persist in the body, increasing the risk of spreading to others. AMR is one of the most serious health threats facing humanity. It could cause 10 million deaths per year and an overall cost of $100 trillion to the global economy by 2050. We encourage all sectors to use antimicrobials prudently, to work together and to strengthen preventive measures addressing AMR. https://ow.ly/Ap0m50TXwhZ #AntimicrobialResistance #PreventAMR
