The antibiotic resistance threat is real. In the years to come, we will no longer be able to treat and cure many infections we once could.

We must only prescribe them when absolutely needed - just like Sweden does.

Thank you Katelyn, I just turned on episode 1! I think we can justify it as study, it’s real world knowledge 😏

I need to do an assignment but my boyfriend has put #InsideBillsBrain on @netflix and I can’t look away... as @BillGates said himself, I’ve never known someone to bury a child due to diarrhoea. Stark contrast. A must watch! #sanitation #reimagine

We should be ashamed that such a thing could happen in our health system. We must do better than this.

#HealthStarRating isn’t working. We need to help people make healthy decisions and that means giving them information. Visual representations work! Australia’s health is more important than the soft drink industry making money.

Coming up on @abcnews covering this and other labeling developments.

And now for my second tweet... a picture of my fur babies! @Melinda_Edmunds do you recommend a public health to dog photo ratio of 1:1? #PHCareers19

[Elena Kagi @Elena_Kagi]

So much great advice at #PHCareers19 from all the speakers. Favourite quote from the night comes from @RoranceWatts: “WHO is like the mafia”. Looking forward to more events like this. @_PHAA_WA @_PHAA_ @AHPA_AU
