Climate crisis projected to fuel ‘alarming rise’ in antimicrobial resistance by 2050
Current climate change trajectories could contribute to an increase in the global burden of antimicrobial resistance (AMR) by 2050, according to new research published in Nature Medicine. The study projects that under the worst-case climate scenario where global temperatures rise by 4-5°C, AMR could increase by up to 2.4% globally, with disproportionate impacts on lower […]
