Antibiotic Resistance

Antibiotic resistance is a major global health threat, where bacteria become resistant to antibiotics, making infections harder to treat. This resistance arises naturally but is accelerated by misuse of antibiotics. It poses a risk to all ages and could lead to a post-antibiotic era where common infections become deadly. The crisis is driven by factors like incorrect prescriptions and antibiotic use in animals. Solutions include proper prescription practices, public education, and regulation. Everyone can contribute to slowing the spread by understanding the importance of antibiotics and using them responsibly.
