Superbugs
2024-09-30
As cases where conventional antimicrobial drugs fail to effectively treat infections increase, multidrug-resistant bacteria (also known as "superbugs") are rapidly spreading across the globe. In 2019, the World Health Organization classified antimicrobial resistance as one of the top ten global public health threats facing humanity. In May 2016, the government established the High Level Steering Committee on Antimicrobial Resistance and subsequently formulated the Hong Kong Strategy and Action Plan on Antimicrobial Resistance. Unfortunately, with the increased risk of secondary bacterial infections in COVID-19 patients, the use of antibiotics has also risen, significantly impacting Hong Kong's antimicrobial resistance issue. With the completion of the first phase of the Action Plan (2017-2022), the government committed in the 2021 Policy Address to review and draft a second plan, which will be implemented starting at the end of 2023 to strengthen efforts against the superbug crisis.
If “ Hong Kong Connection ” were a tree, how old would it be? It was on 5 March, 1978 that the documentary series first went on the air in Chinese.
As the series continues, its staff are determined to go on uncovering and delving into every local and international topic that concerns the people in Hong Kong, whether it be political, economic, educational, commercial, environmental or technological.
A tree plays an important environmental role in refreshing the air that we breathe and holding from the earth on which we stand. It is Hong Kong Connection's mission to provide the public with information and analyses as well as an opportunity for rational discussion.
The programme is aired from 29 May 2023 (Monday) on RTHK32 at 9:30pm - 10:00pm.
