‎WHO Aware Classification edit

Originally proposed at Wikidata:Property proposal/Natural science

DescriptionThe World Health Organization currently classifies 258 antibiotics into "Access", "Watch", and "Reserve" based partly on the risk of resistance developing as a result of such use and critical nature of the antibiotic in question.

Motivation edit

This is an important parameter of an antibiotic. The list will be updated every two years.  – The preceding unsigned comment was added by Doc James (talk • contribs).

Discussion edit

I agree. I am mostly out of office till the week of 28 August. I will set those items then. Please give a week. Bluerasberry (talk) 02:53, 24 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Doc James:: I fully agree. At the University of Sfax, the Department of Microbiology releases statistical data about antibiotic resistance every year. This changes every year with auto-medication and limited commitment to drug therapies due to their cost. Concerning AWaRE, there is a new edition at https://www.who.int/publications/i/item/WHO-MHP-HPS-EML-2023.04. So, probably, we need to use start time (P580) and end time (P582). --Csisc (talk) 07:29, 26 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks User:Csisc Yes a new edition will come out every two years. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 14:42, 5 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I think the proposal is now good to go. We can complete this dataset in Wikidata by matching these World Health Organization classifications to the existing Wikidata items for these ~250 antibiotic drugs. Bluerasberry (talk) 19:34, 3 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Amazing, thank you User:Bluerasberry. Will get Ibrahem to add all the data once this is approved. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 16:07, 6 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
