  Going global: CDC launches novel antimicrobial resistance tracking network in 50 countries
  
  By the start of 2022, we reached an incredible milestone— launching the Global Antimicrobial Resistance Laboratory and Response Network (Global AR Lab & Response Network). This network takes a One Health approach and recognizes that resistant organisms can spread across continents through people, animals, and their shared environments. It aims to improve the detection of antimicrobial-resistant threats and prevent their spread globally. The network spans nearly 50 countries and works with more than 20 organizations worldwide to build laboratory capacity to detect antimicrobial-resistant organisms, prevent infections in healthcare and the community through proven practices, and apply innovative ways to respond to antimicrobial resistance threats.
  
  Additionally, we work with partners to identify risk factors driving the emergence and spread of antimicrobial resistance, while providing support for on-the-ground response to antimicrobial resistance threats emerging across healthcare, sexually transmitted, fungal, enteric, and invasive bacterial and respiratory pathogens.
