In 2019, Ella faced the most severe drug-resistant infection she had ever experienced. Stories like Ella’s are becoming more common, but they rarely make the news. This is why World AMR Awareness Week exists. AMR is here. This #WAAW week, we confront it together with #DeSci.

When pharmaceuticals leak into nature, they don’t disappear. They change animal behaviour, disrupt hormones, enter crops and fuel antimicrobial resistance #AMR. What harms the environment harms us. Let’s #BeatChemicalPollution: bit.ly/4nZClxH #WAAW

Thank you to everyone who shared their stories and helped bring our #ThankYouAntibiotics campaign to life - a powerful moment that reminds us how important #antibiotics are. Couldn’t make it to the Piccadilly Circus yesterday? Watch it here 👇

Today marks the start of World #AMR Awareness Week. #AntimicrobialResistance (AMR) is not a future problem. It is a present crisis, causing more than one million deaths every year and undermining decades of medical progress. With the right policies, we can protect our people and our health systems. @WHO calls on all countries to fully implement and fund their National Action Plans, strengthen #OneHealth systems, and keep antibiotics and life-saving medicines working for everyone. Let's act now. Protect our present. Secure our future.
