๐Ÿ‘‰ Those big conversations can feel heavy. Awkward. Risky.

๐ŸŒ World AMR Awareness Week | 18โ€“24 November
Theme: Act Now โ€“ Protect Our Present, Secure Our Future

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the biggest threats to global health today. When bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites become resistant to medicines, infections become harder to treat - putting lives, food security, and the environment at risk.

This week, weโ€™re joining the global call to action. Everyone has a role to play - from healthcare professionals to farmers, veterinarians, and local communities. Together, we can protect the medicines that protect us all.

Do:

โœ…Only take antibiotics prescribed for you

โœ…Ask if your prescribed antibiotics are the preferred first-line treatment

โœ…Prevent infections by washing your hands and keeping up to date with vaccinations

โœ…Complete the full course if prescribed

Donโ€™t:

โŒ Use antibiotics for colds or flu - they donโ€™t treat viruses

โŒ Share your antibiotics with others

โŒ Save leftover antibiotics for later

๐ŸŒ World AMR Awareness Week 2025

18โ€“24 November 2025
Theme: Act Now: Protect Our Present, Secure Our Future

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is one of the biggest global health challenges of our time. When bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites become resistant to the medicines designed to treat them, infections become harder - and sometimes impossible - to cure.

Misuse and overuse of antibiotics and other antimicrobials -whether in humans, animals, or agriculture - accelerate this resistance. This not only affects individual health, but also threatens our food systems, environment, and economies.

๐Ÿฉบ What can you do?

Only use antibiotics when prescribed by a qualified healthcare professional.

Always complete the full course of treatment - even if you feel better.

Never share or use leftover antibiotics.

Prevent infections by practising good hygiene and keeping vaccinations up to date.

๐ŸŒฑ A One Health approach

AMR affects us all - humans, animals, plants, and the environment. Tackling it requires everyone to work together: healthcare professionals, farmers, veterinarians, policymakers, and communities.

Letโ€™s act now to protect the medicines that save lives - today and for future generations.
