Description:AMR is one of the most serious global public health threats. The TATFAR partners—technical experts from government agencies in Canada, the European Union (EU), Norway, and the United States (U.S.)—are committed to the One Health approach to combat AMR by collaborating on activities to improve appropriate antimicrobial use in human health care, veterinary medicine, food animal production and plant protection, prevent antimicrobial- resistant infections, and strengthen the antimicrobial, alternatives, vaccines, and diagnostic pipeline. This report summarizes the progress and outcomes of each action during TATFAR’s last implementation period (2016-2020), as well as plans for continued work for the next five-year work plan (2021-2026).
Although AMR is not a new phenomenon, the current magnitude of the problem and the speed with which new resistance phenotypes and mechanisms have emerged and spread elevates its public health significance.
Produced by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention as Secretariat for the Transatlantic Taskforce on Antimicrobial Resistance (TATFAR).
