You caught a cold overnight. Your roommate offered you some leftover antibiotics for you to 'feel better'. What do you do?

@VCarterAMR @AmrInsights @amr_initiative @UYCAS256 @AMResistance We totally agree!

On the 26th May 2015, the @WHO member states declared war on antimicrobial resistance by adopting a harmonized, global action plan.

It has been 11 years, how far have we gone?
A thread...

[The Foundation to Prevent Antibiotic Resistance @ResResistance]

This global action plan, at its core, is made up of 5 objectives with the sole aim of preventing AMR by ensuring the treatment and prevention of infectious diseases with safe medicines

Have you ever stopped using your drugs because you felt better?

If you have then you have contributed to the rise in #AMR by that singular act.

Do your part in preventing AMR
Act Now
There is a dose given for a reason.

If you have a nurse in your corner, celebrate them in the comments.

Which of these surprised you?

Let us know in the comments.

Last Tuesday was #InternationalNursesDay and we could not let this month go by without highlighting how important nurses are to antimicrobial stewardship.

In case you didn't know, they are really important.

This is how important they are👇

They are the first point of contact when a patient comes into the hospital and when a patient leaves.
They give patients instructions so we can call them the custodians of antimicrobial stewardship, no?

[The Foundation to Prevent Antibiotic Resistance @ResResistance]

If you thought #AntimicrobialResistance is not a 'you' problem, you thought wrong.

It's a new week and another day to remind you that we all have a role to play in combating #AMR

Do your part and keep the fight going!

Imagine a world where the health workforce in every country is organized, exercised, coordinated and connected to face emergencies at home and abroad.

That is the vision of the Global Health Emergency Corps, and with a new strategy and goals for 2030.
