Summary:Infections caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria are considered a major global health threat. Previous studies have consistently described these infections having a considerable public health burden in terms of attributable deaths and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs). This report aims to provide updated estimates of the burden of infections with selected bacterium–antibiotic resistance combinations in the EU/EEA in 2016-2020 and assess how this burden has changed from previous estimates. |
