Global burden of lower respiratory infections associated with antimicrobial resistance: insights from the Global Burden of Disease 2021
While overall burden of AMR-associated LRIs mortality shows a declining trajectory, significant disparities persist across SDI strata. The emergence of resistance to last-resort antimicrobials of the leading bacterial pathogens highlights the urgent need for the prevention and control of AMR.
