Popis: For decades, infectious disease and public health experts have recognised antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and resulting infections due to multidrug resistant organisms as a persistent and increasingly urgent threat to public health at the local, national, and global level. The years leading up to the COVID-19 pandemic were marked by important victories in the battle against AMR, including a surge in scientific inquiry on the topic, the development of multinational best practice consensus statements, the establishment of regional and global venues to share information, and a partially-funded commitment by world leaders to address the topic in a serious and sustained manner.
