Antibiotic/Antimicrobial resistance (AMR)
Data
Infographic: Healthcare-associated infections – a threat to patient safety in Europe
A total of 8.9 million healthcare-associated infections were estimated to occur each year in European hospitals and long-term care facilities.
Data
Infographic: Antibiotic resistance – an increasing threat to human health
Each year, 33000 people die from an infection due to bacteria resistant to antibiotics. The burden of infections with bacteria resistant to antibiotics on the European population is comparable to that of influenza, tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS combined.

Antibiotics: be responsible
The ability of bacteria to resist the action of an antibiotic has become a recognised global problem. Antibiotic resistance severely limits the number of antibiotics available for the treatment of diseases.

Data
Infographic: HIV late Diagnosis - 2018 data
In the EU/EEA, almost every second HIV diagnosis happened at a late stage in 2018. This means diagnosis several years after infection. In 2018, 49 % of those with a CD4 cell count reported at HIV diagnosis were diagnosed late (several years after infection).
Data
Infographic: HIV late Diagnosis - 2017 data
In the EU/EEA, almost every second HIV diagnosis happened at a late stage in 2017. This means diagnosis several years after infection.
In 2007, 49 % of those with a CD4 cell count reported at HIV diagnosis were diagnosed late (several years after infection).
Data
Infographic: HIV and AIDS in Europe 2017
Europe experiences a persistent HIV epidemic, with only little changes in notifications during the last decade in the EU/EEA. One reason for this: an estimated 120 000 Europeans are living with undiagnosed HIV in the EU/EEA, which means that about 1 in 7 of those living with HIV are not aware of their status. And it takes on average three years from HIV infection to diagnosis.
Data

This infographic depicts the number of tuberculosis cases reported to be infected with HIV, according to the Tuberculosis Surveillance and Monitoring report 2017
Data
HIV and AIDS in Europe: Test & protect!
ECDC estimates that 810 000 people are currently living with HIV in the EU/EEA – of which 122 000 (15%) do not know they are infected. Early diagnosis helps to prevent further transmission and lowers the risk of severe health complications.
Data
