Review of pathogens

The pathogens on the WHO priority list of antibiotic resistant bacteria were analysed to evaluate their suitability for vaccine development to tackle the threat of AMR. They were evaluated independently and comparisons were also drawn between the pathogens. Please navigate to the sections below for more information.

Pathogen comparison

The pathogens were compared across three dimensions: health impact, probability of R&D success for a vaccine and probability of vaccine uptake. These comparisons are discussed in this section.

Pathogen profiles

The pathogens were each assessed on health impact, probability of R&D success for a vaccine and probability of vaccine uptake. These assessments can be found in this section.

Cross-cutting activities

Some actions would aid the development of vaccines for many or all of these pathogens. Recommendations relating to these actions can be found in this section.

Vaccine pipeline information

Publicly available information on vaccine candidates in development can be found in this section
