More than 39 million people around the world could die from antibiotic-resistant infections over the next 25 years, according to a study published in The Lancet.
The new study by the Global Research on Antimicrobial Resistance (GRAM) Project is the first global analysis of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) trends over time.
It reveals that more than one million people died each year as a result of AMR between 1990 and 2021.
