Antibiotic Resistance Threatens Global Health Future

Antibiotics are medicines that help us fight infections.

They were a big discovery and have saved many lives.

But now, bacteria are becoming resistant to these medicines, making infections harder to treat.

This is called antibiotic resistance or AMR.

It's a big problem because it makes simple infections dangerous and treatments more expensive.

People are misusing antibiotics by taking them for the wrong illnesses or not finishing their course.

Animals are also given too many antibiotics, which makes the problem worse.

If we don't stop this, many more people could get sick and even die.

We need to use antibiotics wisely and find new ways to fight infections to keep these medicines working for the future.
