Antibiotic Resistance: The Greatest Threat to Global Health
Antibiotic Awareness Week, which runs from 18 to 24 November, is a global campaign launched by the World Health Organization (WHO) to promote appropriate antibiotic use practices and prevent antibiotic resistance.
Antibiotic resistance causes bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites to no longer respond to treatment, making it difficult to treat infections. Antibiotic resistance is considered one of the biggest threats to global health today.
The strong implementation of Antibiotic Resistance Awareness Week in Vietnam helps people understand the importance of using antibiotics properly. At the same time, this campaign also aims to promote cooperation in the health sector according to the "One Health" approach (human, animal and environmental health).
Associate Professor, Doctor, Pharmacist Nguyen Tuan Dung shared at the seminar.
