What are the Challenges in Controlling Infections?
Controlling infections is challenging due to factors such as antibiotic resistance, emerging infectious diseases, and global travel. Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria evolve to resist the effects of antibiotics, making infections harder to treat. Emerging infectious diseases are new or previously unrecognized infections that have appeared in a population. Global travel facilitates the rapid spread of infectious agents across borders, complicating efforts to contain outbreaks.
