ICMR report warns of sharp rise in antibiotic resistance in Indian hospitals

The Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) has released an eight-report highlighting a concerning trend of increasing antibiotic resistance in Indian hospitals.

‘Huge urgency’ in addressing rising extortion cases in B.C.: Eby
