Antimicrobial resistance
All types of microbes can develop drug resistance . Thus, there are antibiotic, antifungal, antiviral and antiparasitic resistance . [5][10] Antibiotic resistance is a subset of antimicrobial resistance . This more specific resistance is linked to bacteria and thus broken down into two further subsets, microbiological and clinical.
DNA tells the germ how to make specific proteins, which determine the germ's resistance mechanisms. Bacteria and fungi can carry genes for many types of resistance . Alarmingly, antimicrobial -resistant germs can share their resistance mechanisms with other germs that have not been exposed to antibiotics or antifungals.

Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites change over time and no longer respond to medicines making infections harder to treat and increasing the risk of disease spread, severe illness and death.
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) occurs when germs (bacteria, virus, or fungus) that cause infections resist the effects of the medicines used to treat them. These resistant bacteria can spread and may infect people or animals. They are harder to treat than non-resistant bacteria.
