“Promoting the widespread use of phages will help us to address critical challenges of our time, including: i.Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR), a major public health threat which is currently responsible for 33,000 deaths per year in the EU alone and adds an additional €1.5 billion to EU healthcare costs. This figure is forecast to rise to 10 million deaths per year by 2050. ii.With a growing population, we will have 10 billion people on the planet by 2050, and we need a way to feed them. iii.Greenhouse gas emissions from agricultural production currently account for 11% of GHG emissions and have risen 14% since 2000.”
