Cases of infections caused by antibiotic-resistant bacteria, often called "nightmare bacteria," are rising sharply. This poses a significant threat to public health worldwide. These bacteria are resistant to multiple antibiotics, making treatment extremely difficult and sometimes impossible. Infections can lead to severe illness and even death. Improved hygiene practices are crucial in preventing the spread. Stricter infection control measures in healthcare settings are also vital. Developing new antibiotics is a priority. Research into alternative treatments is underway. Public awareness campaigns are needed to inform the public about the dangers. The situation requires urgent global action.
