"Bacterial antimicrobial resistance (AMR)—which occurs
when changes in bacteria cause the drugs used to treat
infections to become less effective—has emerged as one
of the leading public health threats of the 21st century."
Deaths directly attributable to AMR are the ones for which the drug-resistant infection represents the main cause of death.
