Dr. Luong Ngoc Khue, Director of the Medical Examination and Treatment Department, Deputy Head of the National Steering Committee for Antimicrobial Resistance Prevention and Control, emphasized the urgency of strengthening education and communication programs to alter perceptions and prevent the misuse of antibiotics in healthcare, livestock, veterinary, and community.
«Antibiotic resistance poses a significant threat to global health and development, necessitating resolute action across all levels and sectors. The World Health Organization has identified antibiotic resistance as one of the top ten threats to human health. The improper use and abuse of antibiotics are the primary factors contributing to the development of bacterial resistance. Failing to act today will make it increasingly difficult tomorrow to witness patients enduring suffering without access to effective treatment,» remarked Mr. Luong Ngoc Khue.
