Global policy responses to antimicrobial resistance, 2021–22: a systematic governance analysis of 161 countries and territories
The global response to antimicrobial resistance was greatly affected by the income level of the nation, highlighting global disparities in antimicrobial resistance governance capacity. Lower scores in lower-income regions likely reflect systemic challenges, such as less public health spending and less access clean water and santiation. Implementation tools should be prioritised in the design and execution of NAPs, especially measures that improve infection prevention and control, surveillance systems for antimicrobial use, and stewardship programmes.
