The High-Level Meeting on antimicrobial resistance (AMR) at the UN General Assembly today is a pivotal opportunity for world leaders to adopt an ambitious and coordinated approach to tackle the biggest health challenge of our lifetime.

Hospital stays for patients with AMR average around 13 days, causing an additional 8 million hospital days annually.
