Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing crisis in Sub-Saharan Africa, with 23.7 deaths per 100,000 people, a figure that surpasses the combined mortality rate of several endemic diseases. This urgent health threat demands immediate global action. #AMRLandmarkReport

Measles is not a ‘harmless childhood’ disease but can have very serious complications even death.. Fortunately it is avoidable.. Why risk the health and well-being of a child when a safe and highly effective vaccine is readily available? politico.eu/article/uk-disea…

Help avoid unnecessary antibiotic use and the dreaded "Bali Belly" + related illnesses by getting your travel vaccines before heading abroad to surf. Surfing in South East Asia and parts of Africa comes with risk of contaminated water and typhoid. #surfing #wsl #WAAW23
