(29) Action No. 5 of the Communication from the Commission to the European Parliament and the Council – Action plan against the rising threats from Antimicrobial Resistance22 emphasises the preventive role of this Regulation and the consequent expected reduction of the use of antibiotics in animals. Resistance of microorganisms to antimicrobials to which they were previously responsive is increasing. This resistance complicates the treatment of infectious diseases in humans and animals. As a result, specific microorganisms that have developed resistance to antimicrobials should be treated as if they were transmissible diseases, and thus covered by the scope of this Regulation. __________________ 22 COM (2011) 748.
