Coronavirus Disease 2019 and Antimicrobial Resistance: Parallel and Interacting Health Emergencies

Robby Nieuwlaat et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic and antimicrobial resistance are parallel health emergencies that provide the opportunity for mutual learning, with potential long-term impacts of AMR illustrated by the measures and consequences of COVID-19. There is a push to use existing antimicrobials for COVID-19 treatment, which may also impact the spread of AMR, highlighting the need for data collection to understand the influence of COVID-19 on AMR trends.

The interrelationships between antimicrobial resistance, COVID-19, past, and future pandemics

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in high morbidity and mortality rates, with some cases showing resistance to antimicrobials leading to worse outcomes. Antimicrobial-resistant co-infections have been a significant factor in clinically significant mortality. Various factors such as misuse of antimicrobials, international travel, healthcare financing issues, human use/misuse, agricultural production, and climate change are determinants of antimicrobial resistance.

Assessing the Impact of COVID-19 on Antimicrobial Stewardship Activities/Programs in the United Kingdom

Diane Ashiru-Oredope et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on antimicrobial stewardship activities in the UK, with most activities being reduced. However, it has also led to increased use of technology and collaboration, presenting opportunities for further development in the post-pandemic era.

Trends in Antibiotic Prescribing in Out-of-Hours Primary Care in England from January 2016 to June 2020 to Understand Behaviours during the First Wave of COVID-19

Nina J. Zhu et al.

Summary: The study described the trend of antibiotic prescribing in out-of-hours general practices before and during the first wave of COVID-19 pandemic in England. It found that there was an increase in broad-spectrum antibiotic prescribing during the pandemic, while overall antibiotic prescribing volume decreased. The use of co-amoxiclav and doxycycline in out-of-hours settings peaked in March to May of 2020.

Beyond Antimicrobial Use: A Framework for Prioritizing Antimicrobial Resistance Interventions

Noelle R. Noyes et al.

Summary: Antimicrobial resistance poses a threat to both animal and human health, with reductions in antimicrobial use being a key intervention to mitigate resistance. Stakeholders have implemented antimicrobial stewardship programs to reduce use, yet the impacts have been varied. Future priorities should include a greater consideration of host-microbial interactions in dictating resistance.

Antimicrobial resistance and COVID-19: Intersections and implications

Gwenan M. Knight et al.

Summary: The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on antimicrobial resistance is two-fold, potentially reducing resistance through increased hand hygiene and decreased international travel, but also exacerbating it through increased antibiotic use. The dynamics of antimicrobial resistance remain uncertain at this stage, highlighting the need for global collaboration to address this intersecting public health challenge.

Key considerations on the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on antimicrobial resistance research and surveillance

Jesus Rodriguez-Bano et al.

Summary: During the COVID-19 pandemic, inappropriate and excessive antibiotic prescribing in SARS-CoV-2 patients has highlighted weaknesses in antimicrobial stewardship programs, with a deprioritization of surveillance and containment of antimicrobial resistance. Long-term global surveillance, implementation research, and internationally coordinated AMR research are necessary to prepare for future challenges from emerging resistance in the context of current and future pandemics.

Summary: The web-based survey conducted on Brazilian MSM and transgender/non-binary individuals during the pandemic revealed concerns about HIV risks, challenges with medication refill, as well as social and racial disparities. Tailored policies and innovative solutions are needed to address these issues and prevent the spread of HIV.
