The need to increase antimicrobial resistance surveillance among forcibly displaced persons (FDPs)
Abstract Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) poses a significant threat to human health as 4.95 million deaths were associated with bacterial AMR in 2019 and is projected to reach 10 million by 2050. To mitigate AMR, surveillance is an essential tool for determining the burden of AMR and providing the ne...
