Special Eurobarometer 478: Antimicrobial Resistance (in the EU)

Description

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is the ability of microorganisms to resist antimicrobial treatments, especially antibiotics. This has a direct impact on human as well as animal health and carries a heavy economic burden due to higher costs of treatments and reduced productivity caused by sickness. The European Commission has conducted a Special Eurobarometer presenting EU citizens' awareness on antibiotics and how these are used by the citizens and in agriculture. While the results show a decrease of the use over the last 10 years, one-fifth of the population still takes antibiotics for the wrong purpose. 85% of Europeans are aware that unnecessary use makes them become ineffective. More key figures can be found in the full Eurobarometer report. #####The results by volumes are distributed as follows: * Volume A: Countries * Volume AA: Groups of countries * Volume A' (AP): Trends * Volume AA' (AAP): Trends of groups of countries * Volume B: EU/socio-demographics * Volume B' (BP) : Trends of EU/ socio-demographics * Volume C: Country/socio-demographics ---- Researchers may also contact GESIS - Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences: [https://www.gesis.org/eurobarometer](https://www.gesis.org/eurobarometer)
