Highlights
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the leading causes of death globally
Recent estimates reveal that 1.2 million deaths were due to resistant bacterial infections in 2019 and 4.95 million deaths were associated with resistant bacterial infections [1]
This includes nourishing the pipeline, investing in the development of new therapies knowing that research and development (R&D) of safe and effective products takes time, and adopting policy at the government level such as advanced remuneration frameworks to create a viable environment for new products [2]
