	FAO Action Plan on AMR in food and agriculture Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations FAO (2016) C2 View PDF(20) Download (12) Add to my MEDBOX Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a threat to human and animal health and refers to the ability of microorganisms to defy the medicines prescribed. For instance when antibiotics are used improperly, such as an incorrect dose, insufficient duration or wrong frequency, resistance is heightened. The misuse of antimicrobials affects their efficacy, and increasingly more infections and diseases become untreatable. Many gains made in modern medicine throughout the 20th century will be lost, making AMR a global public and animal health issue that requires concerted action. AMR and the use of antimicrobials (AMU) affect food safety and security, people’s livelihoods, as well as economic and agricultural development Tags: AMR, Antimicrobial resistance, animal's health, Agriculture, Source: https://www.fao.org/3/i6141e/i6141e.pdf

	Healthy animals, Happy farmers! Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) (2016) C2 View PDF(18) Download (13) Add to my MEDBOX When an infection strikes, and medicines like antibiotics (and other antimicrobials) do not work, you can lose your entire stock of animals to disease. This also puts the health of you and your family at risk when the infection can spread between animals and people.

When pathogens become resistant to antimicrobial agents they can pose a greater human health risk as a result of potential treatment failure, loss of treatment options and increased likelihood and severity of diseas Tags: AMR, foodborne AMR, Antimicrobial resistance, Agriculture, Source: https://www.fao.org/3/a-i4296t.pdf
	Review of Evidence on Antimicrobial Resistance and Animal Agriculture in Developing Countries Grace, D. International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI) (2015) C2 View PDF(23) Download (14) Add to my MEDBOX This short paper aims to identify key evidence gaps in our knowledge of livestock- and fisheries-linked antimicrobial resistance in the developing world, and to document on-going or planned research initiatives on this topic by key stakeholders. The antimicrobial resistant (AMR) infections in animals that are of most potential risk to human health are likely to be zoonotic pathogens transmitted through food, especially Salmonella and Campylobacter. In addition, livestock associated methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (LA MRSA) and extended spectrum beta lactamase E. coli (ESBL E. coli) are emerging problems throughout the world Tags: AMR, Antimicrobial resistance, animals, Agriculture, IEC Material, stakeholders, Source: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk
	Commisson Notice: Guidelines for the prudent use of antimicrobials in veterinary medicine Official Journal of the European Union (2015) C2 View PDF(21) Download (21) Add to my MEDBOX The extensive use of antimicrobials in human and veterinary medicine in recent years has accelerated the emergence and spread of resistant microorganisms. This situation has been worsened by the lack of investment in developing new effective antibiotics. The severity of the consequences is clear to see: it is estimated that each year, drug-resistant infections result in at least 25 000 patient deaths and cost the EU EUR 1,5 billion in healthcare costs and through loss of productivit Tags: AMR, Antimicrobial resistance, veterinary, veterinary medicine, Source: https://ec.europa.eu/health//sites/healt
