As we bid farewell to 2024, a time for reflection, objective setting, and the odd new years resolution to break early in 2025. The latest ESPAUR report was published a few months ago, and helps us to set some priorities for 2025 and beyond. As ever, there’s a mixture of good news and bad news in the report, but mostly I’m grateful that we have sufficient data and co-ordination to give us this level of detail about the current and emerging threats related to HCAI and AMR in the UK.
