The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- Any microbe can develop resistance, including bacteria, viruses, parasites, and fungi.
- Together, these adaptations fall under the AMR umbrella, posing a challenge to all countries and all demographics.
- Misuse and improper management of antimicrobials are primary drivers of this resistance, though it can also occur naturally through genetic mutations and the spread of resistant genes.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Antimicrobial resistance article was read about 70,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 96 and blocks with 85: each hit it takes is cut by 34 %.
