Antibiotic / Antimicrobial resistance is the ability of microbes to resist the effects of drugs – that is, the germs are not killed, and their growth is not stopped. Although some people are at greater risk than others, no one can completely avoid the risk of antibiotic-resistant infections. Infections with resistant organisms are difficult to treat, requiring costly and sometimes toxic alternatives.
Bacteria will inevitably find ways of resisting the antibiotics developed by humans, which is why aggressive action is needed now to keep new resistance from developing and to prevent the resistance that already exists from spreading.
抗生素耐藥抗生素/抗菌藥耐藥是指微生物抵抗藥物作用的能力, 簡單來說就是細菌沒被藥物殺死, 也沒有停止生長。 沒有人能完全避免抗生素耐藥的問題,
目前, 尚無法避免細菌對抗生素產生耐藥性, 這就是為什麼現在積極採取行動阻止耐藥性的發展並預防已經產生的耐藥性進行播散。
