Abstract
Antibiotic resistance is a critical global health issue that threatens to undermine the efficacy of antibiotics and the ability to treat common infectious diseases. This paper provides a detailed overview of the mechanisms by which bacteria develop resistance, the impact of this phenomenon on public health, and potential strategies to mitigate the spread of antibiotic-resistant bacteria. The paper also includes data on resistance rates for various bacteria and discusses global efforts to monitor and combat this growing threat.
