Antimicrobial resistance is becoming more dangerous - for example\, multidrug-resistant tuberculosis causes at least 150 000 deaths annually. World Health Day 2011\, will highlight the importance of countries taking action today to protect the medicines of tomorrow.

We live in an era in which we depend on antibiotics\, and other antimicrobial medicines to treat conditions that decades ago\, or even a few years ago in the case of HIV/AIDS\, would have proved fatal. When antimicrobial resistance - also known as drug resistance - occurs\, it renders these medicines ineffective. For World Health Day 2011\, WHO will be calling for intensified global commitment to safeguard these medicines for future generations. Antimicrobial resistance - the theme of World Health Day 2011 - and its global spread\, threatens the continued effectiveness of many medicines used today to treat infectious diseases.
World Health Day is celebrated on 7 April to mark the founding of WHO

“Health Security has historically been marginalized in it's criticality to U.S. National Security. Real world events such as SARS\, Avian Influenza\, Mad Cow Disease\, and West Nile Virus\, to name a few\, have underscored the economic\, social\, political\, and health impacts of Health Security on a global scale. The National Academies of Science (NAS) study \\"Rising Above the Gathering Storm\: Energizing and Employing America for a Brighter Economic Future\, emphasizes the need for a pipeline of young Americans in STEM fields\, and reinforces the deeper underlying challenges necessary for the educational system to develop broad-based accredited programs that support globalization. Health Security is one of the core challenges that societies must address in order to emerge and flourish.”
