What is the Global Impact of PBP-Related Antibiotic Resistance?
The global impact of PBP-related antibiotic resistance is profound. Resistant infections cause significant morbidity and mortality, increase healthcare costs, and complicate treatment regimens. Epidemiologists must collaborate internationally to track resistance patterns and share data. Global initiatives, such as the World Health Organization's Global Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance System (GLASS), are essential for coordinating efforts to combat antibiotic resistance.
