7 Inadequate diagnostics and global surveillance

This figure shows a bar graph representing the number of countries in different WHO regions with an established national reference laboratory for AMR. WHO regions are given on the horizontal axis (AFR, WHO African region; AMR, WHO region for the Americas; EMR, WHO Eastern Mediterranean Region; EUR, WHO European Region; SEAR, WHO South-East Asia Region; WPR, WHO Western Pacific Region.) The vertical axis is labelled number of countries and marked from 0 to 20 in intervals of 5. The graph shows the number of countries with established reference laboratories in blue and the number of countries where laboratories are not established in orange. The region with the highest number of countries with established laboratories is the EUR. The region with the lowest number of countries with established laboratories is SEAR. EMR and EUR both have countries where laboratories have not been established.

This figure shows a bar graph representing the number of hospital surveillance sites in each country of given WHO regions providing data to the WHO global AMR surveillance system (GLASS). WHO regions are given on the horizontal axis (AFR, WHO African region; AMR, WHO region for the Americas; EMR, WHO Eastern Mediterranean Region; EUR, WHO European Region; SEAR, WHO South-East Asia Region; WPR, WHO Western Pacific Region.) The vertical axis is labelled number of countries and marked from 0 to 12 in intervals of 2. The number of countries with 0 surveillance sites is shown in purple. The number of countries with 1–5 surveillance sites is shown in red. The number of countries with 6–50 surveillance sites is shown in orange. The number of countries with more than 50 surveillance sites is shown in blue. AFR and EUR have a high number of countries with 0 surveillance sites. AFR, EMR, SEAR and WPR have no countries with more than 50 surveillance sites. All countries in AMR have more than 50 surveillance sites.
