I welcomed this document because it notes with concern that antimicrobial resistance is an ever-increasing threat to public health in Europe and worldwide, despite the actions taken at European and international level. I believe that a further intensification of the fight against resistance to antimicrobial agents in human medicines is needed, focusing on, in the following order of priority: the prudent use of antimicrobial agents both for humans and for animals, ensuring that they are only used when effectively needed for actual treatment of disease, with the correct dosage, dose intervals and duration; the monitoring and surveillance of antimicrobial resistance; the need for research into, and the development of, new antimicrobial agents and alternatives; and links with measures to combat resistance to antimicrobial agents in veterinary medicines, animal feeding stuffs and crop-growing. The Commission is called on to propose without delay a legislative framework for action against antimicrobial resistance, by promoting ‘responsible use’ initiatives and supporting dissemination of, and information about, such initiatives."@en1
