This article examines resistance to therapy in the broad sense of this concept, both to biophysical and biochemical methods of treatment, because, according to
the author, the mechanisms of resistance are the same. The urgency of this problem is evidenced by the fact that in 2011 World
Health Day was declared by WHO as a day to combat drug resistance. The implication of the statement by Margaret Chan, Director-General of WHO, on April
7, 2011, is that humanity is threatened by a post-antibiotic era in which most
common infectious diseases will have nothing to treat due to the development of antimicrobial resistance (AMR).
