Date Time Record response to WHO’s call for antimicrobial resistance surveillance reports in 2020 A record number (more than 3 million) of laboratory-confirmed infection cases, along with their antimicrobial resistance (AMR) results, were reported to WHO in response to the 2020 call for input to its Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS). Collectively, country reports show high numbers of bloodstream infections caused by E. coli with resistance to third generation cephalosporins and by antimicrobial resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) – the two AMR Sustainable Development Goal indicators. Resistance seem to be higher in low and middle-income countries (LMICs) than in richer countries and could be particularly worrying for countries with limited access to modern antibiotics effective against these infections.
