AMR is a public health concern we must resolve together | Dr. Somdatta Karak | TEDxJNTU Hyderabad
Antibiotics kill bacteria. Once a miracle drug, they are not working as effectively anymore. That has happened because our own actions have helped bacteria evolve against the action of these drugs. Bacteria have changed such that they can prevent the antibiotic entering their cells or throw out the
