Antimicrobial resistance in food-producing animals: towards implementing a one health based national action plan in Israel.

Without a comprehensive and funded national action plan, the risks of antimicrobial resistance to the public health in Israel will escalate. Thus, several actions should be considered: (1) Reporting data on the use of antimicrobials in humans and animals. (2) Operating a centralized surveillance system for antimicrobial resistance in humans, animals and the environment. (3) Improving awareness regarding antimicrobial resistance in the general public and in health practitioners from both human and animal sectors. (4) Composing a list of critically important antimicrobials to human medicine that's use should be avoided in food-producing animals. (5) Enforcing best practices of antimicrobial use at the farm-level. (6) Reducing incidence of infection through farm biosecurity. (7) Supporting research and development of new antimicrobial treatments, vaccines and diagnostic tools.
