Resistance Map Overview: The Latest Data on Global Antibiotic Resistance

Abstract

ResistanceMap is a web-based interactive tool that allows users to explore global trends in antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and antibiotic use using maps and other data visualizations. CDDEP first released ResistanceMap in 2010 with data from the United States, Canada, and over 30 European countries. This latest iteration now features data from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) including India, Kenya, South Africa, Thailand, and Vietnam. Data from China, Nepal, Mozambique and the Philippines will be updated soon. ResistanceMap features easy-to-use and quick-loading maps, charts, and trend graphs for both antibiotic use and resistance. Users can compare rates over time, between countries, and, for the United States, between states and census regions.
