The invisible pandemic of antimicrobial resistance and its possible endings
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is often seen as a hidden crisis, fueling policy responses to control its use. However, this commentary critiques this approach, arguing that AMR is not just a result of drug exposure but also broader anthropocentric practices. It advocates for a holistic understanding of AMR, considering its evolutionary adaptability and survival strategies. Instead of controlling AMR as a pandemic, it suggests exploring the complexity and interdependence of AMR issues, advocating for collaborations between humans and non-human actors and a shift towards integrative health strategies.
