Alberta’s One Health Antimicrobial Resistance Framework for Action

Description

The use of antimicrobials is integral to our systems of healthcare and food production. Antimicrobial resistance occurs when microbes, such as bacteria or fungi, are no longer inhibited or killed by the antimicrobials that are available to control them. Antimicrobial resistance is a complex problem, influenced by a multitude of factors and with multi-sectorial impacts. It is a serious threat to human and animal health, food security, and the economy. Alberta's One Health Antimicrobial Resistance Framework for Action provides a roadmap for Alberta's actions to preserve the availability and effectiveness of antimicrobials for future generations.
