• Description:
  Investing to Defend the U.S. against Antibiotic Resistance
  
  Antibiotic resistance (AR), when germs do not respond to the drugs designed to kill them, threatens to return us to the time when simple infections were often fatal. CDC is committed to protecting Americans and the future of healthcare, veterinary, and agriculture industries from the threat of antibiotic resistance.
  
  The AR Investment Map showcases CDC’s activities to meet national goals to prevent drug-resistant infections. CDC supports most of these activities through its AR Solutions Initiative, while also leveraging investments from successful programs across the agency for maximum efficiency.
  
  CDC’s AR Solutions Initiative puts state and local AR laboratory and epidemiological expertise in every state and makes investments in public health innovation to fight AR across healthcare settings, food, and communities.
  
  Since 2016, CDC’s AR Solutions Initiative has supported comprehensive AR work nationwide.
