Global deaths from pathogens attributable to antimicrobial resistance

Deaths from pathogens, broken down by whether they could be prevented without antimicrobial resistance. Estimates are based on models of causes of death,infection types, pathogens, resistance levels, and their impact on infection duration and complications. Estimates are limited by poor data collection in manyregions.

Note: "Other deaths" include deaths not attributed to resistance or not assessed for resistance. Deaths can be caused by multiple pathogens, so the sum of deaths attributed to each pathogenshown here can exceed the total number of deaths.
