The Twin Crises of Climate Change and Anti Microbial Resistance: Impact on Human health  (World Immunization Week)

Overview

"Impact on Human health (World Immunization Week)- The twin crises of climate change and antimicrobial resistance pose significant threats to human health. Climate change contributes to the spread of infectious diseases, alters ecosystems, and increases the frequency of extreme weather events, which can disrupt healthcare services and sanitation. Meanwhile, antimicrobial resistance undermines our ability to treat bacterial infections, leading to higher morbidity and mortality. Together, these crises exacerbate health inequalities and challenge the resilience of healthcare systems worldwide. Join us during the World Immunization Week to learn more about the topic.
