“A stepwise approach was employed. Governance structures were streamlined and sector-specific AMR surveillance guiding documents developed” -> “were developed”
“Conslusion” -> Check the spelling.
“CONFLICTS OF INTEREST” -> “CONFLICT OF INTEREST”
“To streamline the AMR governance in the water and environment sector, a sector-specific AMR technical working group (TWG) was instituted with identified a focal person to coordinate the surveillance activities in the sector.” (Rewrite this.)
I would like to see a description of the testing platforms in this lab and plans for genomic surveillance of AMR since it reveals more about the complexity, evolution, and transmission of these pathogens as seen here.
“The developed sector-specific AMR surveillance documents were pretested.” (How was this done?”)
Figure 1: It would be important to share this data via a public dashboard like here [
Authors should also discuss making a sentence on the contribution of environmental wastewater sequencing.
As a way forward, I wish to request the authors set up a public dashboard to share this important AMR surveillance data to stakeholders beyond the TWG as seen here [
