Microplastics Could Be Turning Bacteria into Drug-Resistant Superbugs For bacteria, microplastics are the perfect meetup spot—tiny, intimate surfaces where microbes can cling, huddle close and swap genes. And these crowded bacterial breeding grounds may pose a threat to human health. A growing body of new research shows that...

Most people with highly drug-resistant infections are not accessing appropriate treatment Some 93% of people in lower income countries are struggling to access the appropriate drugs to treat antibiotic-resistant infections, research suggests.

Shocking statistic 👉 Just 1 in 14 people with highly #drugresistant bacterial infections in low- and middle-income countries receive appropriate antibiotics. This treatment gap is fuelling a global #AMR health crisis that claims more lives than HIV/AIDS and malaria combined.
