KUALA LUMPUR: Some five million people died in 2019 as a consequence of resistance to infections, said Adrian Shephard, the Global Medical Marketing Director for Reckitt.

“Antibiotic resistance is partly caused by its inappropriate use for everyday conditions such as sore throat, cough, and cold. The truth is that antibiotics have zero effect on these conditions,” said Shephard.
