On May 24, 2023, AMR Alliance Japan (Secretariat: Health and Global Policy Institute) released “Recommendation for the Basic Policy on Economic and Fiscal Management and Reform 2023” to promote infectious disease control measures to combat antimicrobial resistance (AMR). The content of the recommendations was as follows.
Promote countermeasures for antimicrobial resistance (AMR) with a One Health approach from perspectives including economic security and serve as a global leader in strengthening preparedness against the threat of infectious disease.
Every year since 2016, Japan’s Basic Policies on Economic and Fiscal Management and Reform have mentioned strengthening efforts to promote AMR control and expanding systems for research, testing, and treatment. Mention of this objective was expanded in 2022 to state, “Japan will also comprehensively examine concrete methods to secure therapeutic drugs for drug-resistant bacteria such as market incentives in measures designed to counter drug resistance, draw conclusions based on these examinations, and then play a leading role in international discussions.” In this manner, Japan has emphasized the importance of AMR control.
As described in the attachment titled, “Promoting Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Countermeasures in the Basic Policy on Economic and Fiscal Management and Reform 2023 Recommendation Background,” progress is being made in measures to combat AMR both in Japan and around the world. Looking ahead to the 79th session of the UN General Assembly (UNGA 79) in 2024 and beyond, it will be crucial for Japan to fulfill its commitments to the international community in its capacity as G7 President in 2023 based on the idea that infectious disease control cannot be fully implemented by countries acting alone.
