| summary |
The emergence of zoonotic bacteria strain with antimicrobial resistance (AMR) trait such as methicillin-resistant S. aureus in human and animals is a global health concerns. The collaborative effort of promoting responsible antibiotics usage under One Health concept has been shown able to reduce the unregulated usage of antibiotics that could leads to the emergence of AMR. In Malaysia, research that study on KAP of AMR among animal handlers is limited. This cross-sectional study was conducted to determine and compare the knowledge, attitude and practices towards AMR among animal handlers. A total of 349 animal handlers from Peninsular Malaysia were recruited in this study, where the respondents were required to answer a questionnaire consisting of four different sections: demographics, knowledge, attitude and practices towards AMR.
