Antimicrobial resistance in Vietnam
OUCRU Hanoi runs a research program on antimicrobial resistance, focusing on the widespread resistance due to antibiotic overuse. Causing over 1.2 million deaths annually, AMR surpasses many major diseases. Our work includes community intervention trials, hospital stewardship programmes and extensive surveillance projects, aiming to inform and implement effective antibiotic use and policies globally.
