I used to be one of those patients that believed it was my body that was resistant to antibiotics, not the bacteria itself. This is a common misconception. Read The AMR Narrative's latest blog which explains more below ๐ #theAMRnarrative #AMR #KeepAntibioticsWorking




Our charity The AMR Narrative has come a long way. I'm so proud to be part of it. In the coming weeks, we're launching our 1st newsletter. To help support us, sign up here: amrnarrative.org/news #theAMRnarative #AMR #AntimicrobialResistance #KeepAntibioticsWorking

Hayley's battle with AMR echo the looming threat: antibiotics may become ineffective, rendering once-treatable infections deadly. Her experience highlights the urgent need for action against AMR.

If you are a conference organiser focusing on #AntimicrobialResistance and thinking of inviting patients, here are my five basic asks to you: 1๏ธโฃ Offer both virtual and in-person attendance. (Not all patients can travel with serious health conditions) 2๏ธโฃ Don't charge registration

Vanessa Carter AMR ๐ฌ๐ง๐ฟ๐ฆ Being a survivor isn't a salaried role. Funding needs to be available to reimburse their time, not just their travel costs.

I think itโs really great to see #surgeons including patient stories in their conferences ๐๐ชWe do this in infectious diseases &now they r with the World Health Organization (WHO) ! Vanessa Carter AMR ๐ฌ๐ง๐ฟ๐ฆ Diane Shader Smith

๐๏ธ Join Prof. Dame Sally Davies for an insightful seminar on global action against AMR. In this seminar, she will share updates on the UN High-Level AMR agenda, the evidence panel & whatโs next for global policy. ๐ 9 July 2025 ๐ฐ๏ธ 13:00 BST ๐ Online ๐ bit.ly/4kVSVgP
