• Description:
  Antimicrobial resistance (AR) is not only a problem in the United States—it is a global crisis. AR has been identified across the world. New forms of AR emerge and can spread with remarkable speed between continents through people, goods, and animals. Inappropriate antibiotic and antifungal use and inadequate infection prevention can increase the chance that AR develops, spreads, and puts the world at risk. It is critical that the United States continue to take a global, One Health approach to combating AR.
