2019 Antibiotic Resistance Threats Report




Overview

CDC's 2019 AR Threats Report includes national death and infection estimates that underscore the continued threat of AR in the United States. More than 2.8 million antimicrobial-resistant infections occur in the U.S. each year, and more than 35,000 people die as a result. When C. diff is added to these, the U.S. toll of all the threats in the report exceeds 3 million infections and 48,000 deaths.

The germs are listed in three categories—urgent, serious and concerning—based on level of concern to human health. The report also includes a Watch List with three threats that have not spread widely in the U.S. but could become common without continued aggressive action.

The 2019 AR Threats Report is intended to:Serve as a reference for information on AR.

Provide the latest AR burden estimates for human health in the U.S.
Highlight emerging areas of concern and additional action needed.

The 2019 report also emphasizes progress in combating AR. However, CDC's 2022 special report highlighting the impact of COVID-19 on antimicrobial resistance in the U.S. found that much of that progress was lost, in large part, due to the effects of the pandemic. The pandemic pushed healthcare facilities, health departments and communities near their breaking points in 2020, making it very hard to maintain the progress in combating AR.

CDC's previous antimicrobial resistance threats reports, published in 2013 and 2019, were important resources to guide U.S. policy for and investments in combating antimicrobial resistance. Starting in 2025, CDC will release estimates for at least 19 antimicrobial resistance threats and an update on the U.S. burden of antimicrobial resistance, by pathogen, in a new electronic format. Going forward, CDC will release new estimates for the burden of these threats at least every two years. Data are critical to guide efforts to combat antimicrobial resistance, and CDC is committed to providing the high-quality data required to steer this important work.
