Really looking forward to this one with @juderobinson5. So much to talk about. So many opportunities to involve patients in hand hygiene: challenge, audit, communications, applied research, and more…
Next week, we're really looking forwarding to having @juderobinson5 on Journal Club to talk about empowering patients for hand hygiene. Register here: events.teams.microsoft.com/e…

I am here in New York for the UN High-Level Meeting on Antimicrobial Resistance.
The message is clear: save antibiotics, save lives.

New data released today in @TheLancet shows that without urgent action, antimicrobial resistance could kill 39 million people by 2050.
Deaths and inequities from the global antibiotic emergency are increasing and now is the time to take urgent action.

Thanks for this French-Dutch-USA collaboration! FMT doesn't eradicate antibiotic resistant gram-negative bacteria, but changes the gut microbiome and possibly reduces infections. @EurFmt @SmitsLab @jvanprehn @GMFHx @HostMicrobeLit sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

"It’s not a silent pandemic for the families and communities affected by #AMR. We must protect modern medicine for future generations or face catapulting from the 21st century to the 19th."
