Last week, we co-hosted a session at the World Health Expo with @nighealthwatch and @DucitBlueFdn, focusing on the private sector's role in combating antimicrobial resistance (AMR).

Our MD, @NiniolaWilliams , called for a private sector coalition to join the fight against AMR.

Last week at #WHXLagos, we co-hosted a workshop on antimicrobial resistance (AMR), titled "Advancing Private Sector Action in Nigeria’s #AMR Response", in partnership with @NCDCgov,@drasatrust, and @Ducit_Blue, which explored how the private sector can drive Nigeria’s response to antimicrobial resistance.

Here’s an overview video of the AMR Workshop👇

“AMR does not respect borders. We must ensure no country is left behind. Let’s move beyond strategic documents and declarations into implementation, monitoring...”

5 years ago this week, a pandemic was declared & most of the world went into lockdown. Those days were tough & a steep learning experience

One good thing that came out of it: the many pandemic books including an excellent one on Nigeria’s response thanks to @Chikwe_I @VIhekweazu

Despite all the recent changes, we need to understand where we are in the health sector.

[Dr Francis Ohanyido, FAPH ⚕️ @ohanyidof]

This is so painful to watch.

For some of us from regions where the COVID-19 pandemic was not this harrowing, we should stop to ask ourselves, "What if...?"

WE must work together as a world to prevent the next pandemic. The #Ubuntu and #Igwebuike philosophies should be at the heart of our preparedness.
