Resumen
Descripción
The rise of antimicrobial resistance
(AMR), if not stopped, threatens to plunge humanity back
into an era of health uncertainty few people alive today can
remember. AMR does not follow national borders; its
consequences affect the lives of everyone on the planet and
blight the prospects of future generations. Yet with the
right approach and intelligent investment, the AMR tide can
be turned. Curbing the rise of AMR demands that it be
refocused as a development problem. Addressing AMR is
necessary to attain many of the sustainable development
goals (SDGs), and it is likewise true that making progress
on several SDGs and their specific targets also will
contribute to tackling AMR. This virtuous synergy should be
recognized more widely and exploited more fully.
