LONDON, July 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- A recent report published by the World Health Organization (WHO) identified vaccines as "highly effective tools in combating AMR". Despite their efficacy, the financial risks and approval processes for vaccine development continue to restrict their use as an immediate solution to the AMR crisis. It was concluded that short-term solutions to prevent resistance must focus on interventions other than vaccines, highlighting the importance of research and investment in other methods of control, including effective infection prevention.

Key Points: 
  • LONDON, July 22, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --A recent report published by the World Health Organization (WHO) identified vaccines as "highly effective tools in combating AMR".
  • Despite their efficacy, the financial risks and approval processes for vaccine development continue to restrict their use as an immediate solution to the AMR crisis.
  • The GHC welcomes this report and advocates the use of hygiene alongside vaccinations in controlling the spread of infections and reducing the impact of AMR.
