Antimicrobial resistance is a health problem that threatens to
undermine almost a century of medical progress. Moreover, it is a
global problem that requires action both in the United States and
internationally. Combating Antimicrobial Resistance and Protecting
the Miracle of Modern Medicine discusses ways to improve detection
of resistant infections in the United States and abroad, including
monitoring environmental reservoirs of resistance. This report sets
out a strategy for improving stewardship and preventing infections
in humans and animals. The report also discusses the strength of
the pipeline for new antimicrobial medicines and steps that could
be taken to bring a range of preventive and therapeutic products
for humans and animals to the market. Table of Contents Front
