What if you could go behind the scenes, into the life of a resistant bacterium? Well, you can't so we've done it for you so you see how simple, daily actions help facilitate resistance. It's a thread... #AntibioticResistance #Dayinthelife

From inside the body, it gets isolated in the laboratory then what next? This shows the trajectory of its life and how you help to spread resistance.

On the 26th May 2015, the @WHO member states declared war on antimicrobial resistance by adopting a harmonized, global action plan. It has been 11 years, how far have we gone? A thread... #AntimicrobialResistance #GlobalActionPlanonAMR

Let's begin this week with a #pledge I, pledge to stop giving #bacteria the power to wax stronger against #Antibiotics I promise to see a doctor before using any antibiotics, finish my dose, and not share my prescription with anyone, not even my family members. #NewWeek

Did you know that bacteria can transfer resistant genes to others, thereby contributing to the rise in #AntibioticResistance? @MotherOfPhage is a 2025 grantee whose project is focused on limiting this transfer using bacteriophages What do you think of this project?

Animals also abuse antibiotics! #LivestockFarming is one of the biggest ways in which antibiotics are abused, as antibiotics are added to livestock feed to 'prevent' diseases. This is one of the ways #AntibioticResistance is transmitted from food to humans Did you know this?

Bhakti Chavan and @MSF are our #AMRChampions! She went through rounds of #AntibioticTherapy to no avail as she had drug-resistant TB until MSF stepped in with a new drug. She chose to share her story so people can know more about this threat, and that's no small feat
