The Burden of Antibiotic Resistance in Indian Neonates

This week’s visualization takes a break from charts to tell a story via an infographic: namely, the story of the one million Indian children who die each year in the first four weeks of life.  Approximately 190,000 of these neonates die from sepsis, a bacterial infection that overwhelms the bloodstream, and of these deaths, it’s estimated that nearly one-third are attributable to antibiotic resistance.  Download the infographic from the Tools section of our website.
