Facing the threat of antimicrobial resistance

The world is losing one of its most powerful health tools: antibiotics and other antimicrobial drugs. The culprit? Antimicrobial resistance, when bacteria evolve and become resistant to existing drugs.

On Wednesday May 29, 2024, from 5:30 pm to 7:30 pm, The AMR Action Fund, the World Economic Forum, and the HUG invite you to an event on combating antimicrobial resistance.
