Vaccines can play an important role in the fight against deaths caused by antimicrobial resistance. A new analysis from the World Health Organization (WHO) shows that improving the use of some vaccines worldwide could prevent up to 106,000 deaths each year linked to antibiotic resistance, which is one of today's biggest challenges. global health.

For years, experts have sounded the alarm that the excessive use of antibiotics in medicine and agriculture has led to the emergence of "supermicrobes" that are difficult to treat.

Researchers estimate that antibiotic-resistant infections could cause over 39 million deaths in the next 25 years. To curb this threat, global leaders have set a target of reducing the number of deaths by 10% by 2030.

According to the WHO report, widespread use of vaccines against 24 major pathogens could reduce global antibiotic use by 22%. Vaccines will not only protect people from infections, but also reduce the need for advanced antibiotics in later treatments./ CNA
