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 π #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: 1οΈβ£ Offer both virtual and in-person attendance. (Not all patients can travel with serious health conditions) 2οΈβ£ Don't charge registration

Vanessa Carter AMR π¬π§πΏπ¦ Being a survivor isn't a salaried role. Funding needs to be available to reimburse their time, not just their travel costs.

I think itβs really great to see #surgeons including patient stories in their conferences ππͺWe do this in infectious diseases &now they r with the World Health Organization (WHO) ! Vanessa Carter AMR π¬π§πΏπ¦ Diane Shader Smith

ποΈ 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 & whatβs next for global policy. π 9 July 2025 π°οΈ 13:00 BST π Online π bit.ly/4kVSVgP
