摘要

抗菌药耐药性(AMR)是我们这个时代最严峻的公共卫生挑战之一。随着细菌的进化和抗药性的产生,抗生素和其他药物变得无效。这种威胁可能会逆转一个世纪以来的医学进步。如果不采取紧急措施让抗生素继续发挥作用,AMR 将在未来 25 年内夺走 3900 万人的生命1。从癌症治疗到常规手术,抗生素对无数程序都至关重要。但是,我们并没有为应对这一危机做好充分准备,全球应对措施也不够深入和迅速。2024 年 9 月,联合国发表了关于 AMR 的政治宣言,确保世界各国承诺应对这一问题。2 这是朝着正确方向迈出的重要一步。但是,要取得有意义的进展,国际社会必须在三个方面采取紧急行动:资金、诊断和公众参与。本月,全球卫生领导人将...

We need to do more to keep antibiotics working
Action to prevent antimicrobial resistance from escalating requires dedicated funding, accessible diagnostics, and public engagement, writes Ara Darzi Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the starkest public health challenges of our time. As bacteria evolve and develop resistance to treatment, antibiotics and other drugs become ineffective. This poses a threat that could reverse a century of medical progress. Without urgent action to keep antibiotics working, AMR could claim 39 million lives over the next 25 years.1 This threat looms over our clinical practice. Antibiotics are crucial to countless procedures, from cancer therapies to routine surgeries. But we are not adequately prepared to tackle this crisis, and the global response is not going far or fast enough. In September 2024, the United Nations issued a political declaration on AMR, securing a commitment from countries worldwide to confront the problem.2 This was an important step in the right direction. But to take meaningful strides, the international community must act urgently on three fronts: funding, diagnostics and public engagement. This month, global health leaders will …
