World Antimicrobial Awareness Week (WAAW) 2024, observed from November 18 to 24, aims to raise awareness about the critical issue of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). AMR occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites evolve to resist the drugs designed to kill them, rendering treatments ineffective and increasing the risk of severe illness, prolonged hospital stays, and higher mortality rates. The article highlights the growing concern over the misuse and overuse of antimicrobials in humans, animals, and agriculture, which accelerates the development of resistance. It discusses the global impact, including the potential for common infections to become untreatable and the economic burden on healthcare systems.
