As the world still mourns the victims of the pandemic caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2, another pandemic that is expected to kill millions of people in less than a century, is already brewing. In the distant future, the global, mostly silent pandemic of antimicrobial resistance is increasingly claiming the lives of patients on hospital floors. Unfortunately, the global health community is now gradually and progressively facing the silently emerging pandemic that could endanger some of the most significant advances in modern medicine. Medical students as future physicians, have the potential to help address this problem sustainably keeping in mind that today's medical professionals will hand over the baton to them and hope for a greater improvement in antimicrobial resistance and antibiotic usage. Thus, the next generation of doctors must be better prepared to use antimicrobials more sparingly and appropriately.
当世界仍在哀悼由严重急性呼吸系统综合症冠状病毒 2 引起的大流行病的受害者时，另一场预计在不到一个世纪内造成数百万人死亡的大流行病已经在酝酿之中。在遥远的未来，全球范围内、主要是无声的抗微生物药物耐药性大流行病正在越来越多地夺走医院病房里患者的生命。不幸的是，全球卫生界现在正逐渐和逐步面临着这场悄然出现的大流行病，它可能危及现代医学的一些最重要的进展。作为未来医生的医学生，有可能帮助可持续地解决这个问题，因为今天的医疗专业人员将把接力棒交给他们，并希望在抗微生物药物耐药性和抗生素使用方面有更大的改善。因此，下一代医生必须更好地准备更节约和更恰当地使用抗微生物药物。
