Anti-infective therapies and preventive vaccines are facing new challenges: the global increase of resistant pathogens both in the community and hospitals, the emergence of new pathogens with their own potential intrinsic resistance, the existence of co-infections, and the increased number of susceptible hosts such as those iatrogenically immunodepressed and elderly. Regarding antimicrobial resistance, the World Health Organization Assembly in May 2005, will discuss one of the resolutions that deal with this worrying problem. European Union has already committed itself to combating resistance to anti-infective therapies, particularly antibiotic resistance.Among other initiatives, EU has banned antibiotics as growth-promoting additives to animal feed and favoured policy to limit their unrestricted use in clinical medicine.
