"‘Ultra-resistant’ bacteria claim the lives of approximately 25 000 people in the European Union each year. To combat increasing resistance to these bacteria, stricter controls on the use of antimicrobial agents, such as antibiotics, are necessary. Half of Europeans incorrectly think that antibiotics can treat viral infections and colds. The European Union and the Member States must therefore improve the quality of information and organise prevention campaigns. Similarly, the risk of resistance to antibiotics being transmitted from animals to humans must be reduced by separating, to the extent possible, the active ingredients used in veterinary medicine and those used in human medicine. Finally, the use in agriculture of ‘last resource’ antibiotics targeting problematic human pathogens should be permitted ‘only within the framework of an authorisation, accompanied by resistance surveillance, preferably on a case-by-case basis’."@en1
