Three circles showing AMR emergence in animals, humans and the environment. There are several arrows added to indicate transmission routes. Examples of AMR emergence in the environment include agricultural fields/products, drinking water (which has transmission route linked to animals and humans), water for recreation (which has a transmission route linked to humans), water for household use (which has a transmission route linked to humans), floods (which has transmission routes linked to animals and humans), and waterways. Examples of AMR emergence in animals include manure (which has a transmission route linked to agricultural fields/products), run-off from farms (which has a transmission route linked to waterways) and slaughterhouse/wet markets waste (which has a transmission route linked to waterways). Examples of AMR emergence in humans include sewage (which has transmission routes linked to agricultural fields/products and waterways), hospitals (which has a transmission route linked to waterways) and antibiotic production facilities (which has a transmission route linked to waterways).
