Resistance To Antibiotics Is Likely to Rise Alarmingly, The Possibility of Millions of Deaths By 2050
Research shows that Super Big can kill millions more people and spend $ 2 trillion annually by 2050.
Research on antibiotic resistance for 122 countries has predicted serious economic and health results.
The Institute for Health Matrix and Evaluation (IHME), a leading global research on the drug, has warned that antibiotics resistant to antibiotics (AMR) germs can pose a serious threat to the world in the next 25 years.
According to the report, if immediate steps are not taken, then by 2050, 13 million 40 thousand in the United States and 1,84,000 people in the UK can be killed every year with diseases that do not affect antibiotics.
Increasing pressure on hospitals, AMR, the germs on which ordinary medicines do not work, not only increase admissions rates in the hospital, but also becomes expensive and complicated. Such diseases are twice as much as more expensive than common infections as they require expensive drugs, prolonged treatment and special care.
According to research, costs on AMR treatment worldwide can reach about $ 176 billion every year. In the UK alone, the costs could increase from $ 90 million to $ 3.7 billion. In the United States, it could increase from $ 15.5 billion to $ 57 billion annually.
The report also states that the situation could decrease the UK’s Labor Force (working people) 0.8 percent, 0.6 percent of the EU and 0.4 percent of the United States.
Experts say that if governments increase the availability of new antibiotics, educate the public for proper use and ensure quality treatment is provided, not only can the loss of casualties be prevented, but the US economy can increase $ 156 billion annually, while the UK’s economy can have $ 12 billion (about 9.3 billion pounds).
IHME expert Dr. Mohsin Naqvi has said that the risk of AMR is increasing day by day. If the world does not take immediate action, the medicines that are available to us today can stop working tomorrow, and normal infections can become fatal.
According to him, it is not only new medicines but also changes in policy, global sharing, and increasing public awareness, especially that antibiotics are not effective against the virus.
A British government spokesman has said that our 10 -year health strategy recognizes AMR as a serious threat and emphasizes immediate steps to prevent its spread, including new vaccines. We have made significant progress by reducing the use of antibiotics in meat production and introducing the world’s first subscription model for the preparation of new drugs.
