Field Trials of hospitalantimicrobial indicators were done in six hospitals in Uganda42and Ghana. A baseline survey on antimicrobial drug use,AMR and its containment has been done in Ethiopia with thesupport of the Drug Administration and Control Authority ofEthiopia in collaboration with Management Sciences for[43]Health. Developing countries such as India and SouthAfrica have to conduct more operational research in thesecritical areas of AMR in order to combat the growing menaceto public health because effective antibiotics are becominguseless due to increased misuse.REFERENCES1.
