We need this in the UK. Well done Portugal

Very disappointing. Vulnerable patients making big treatment choices may opt for this because they can’t bare to think about death and decisions anymore. Anyone with a poor prognosis has probably considered it. Palliative care funding more important. bbc.co.uk/news/live/c99r…

What if the key to tackling AMR lies in combining two powerful therapies? 💊🧫 Discover in our blog how pairing phage therapy with antibiotics could enhance the destruction of bacteria and combat resistance. 👇 🔗 nexabiome.com/blog/combining… #AMR #PhageTherapy #Antibiotics

Researchers from Institut Pasteur and Univ Paris Dideroté developed an artificial intelligence model that can quickly identify the best phage or combination of phages for a particular bacterial infection. thephage.xyz/2024/12/15/the…

Discharged home this afternoon. 12 day stay so not too bad. Grateful as always for cefiderocol. Anti microbial resistance is a frightening problem.

Coming to the end of another intense admission. IVs were QDS cefiderocol and TDS meropenem. #phagetherapy is so important for resistant infections. I need it ASAP for my b.gladioli. It’s been raining for a while but now it’s starting to pour. #amr #antibiotics

MHRA have approved Alyftrek. Next step is NICE. Unsure how I feel. I want this but only if it stops psych side effects. I’d try it but I am still very scarred by Kaftrio. I hope this time round anyone who goes on it and has issues is taken seriously. investors.vrtx.com/news-releases/…

It’s been a very interesting experience getting to write something about science communication and phage therapy for Nature Microbiology. Thank you to the editors! Read 👇🏽 rdcu.be/eiVYd

🚨New publication🚨 We show that K. Pneumoniae bacteriophages can be incorporated into alginate to create an antibiofilm matrix effective against clinical K. pneumoniae strains academic.oup.com/jambio/article…

Anyone else shocked that MHRA have only had 300 reports pf psych side effects on Kaftrio? That’s 3% of patients taking it. Feels very low.

I have had to be my own advocate for phage therapy. Its very unfair that only patients who can shout and do the legwork themselves get it.
