Last session pushed beyond bacteria. Azole-resistant Aspergillus linked to agricultural fungicides. C. auris likely accelerated by climate change. Almost no global capacity for fungal genomic surveillance. AMR is bigger than bacteria. www.amrsurveillance.org #AMRSurveillanceAddis

AMR Convening on Building Sust...

Four national stories. Philippines: 38 years of AMR surveillance, now adding WGS. Uganda: 16 to 43 sites. Pakistan: building a genomic strategy. Brazil: mapping labs nationally. Start small, invest in quality, build government ownership. #AMRSurveillanceAddis Day 1 of www.amrsurveillance.org

Sentinel site session was the most grounding. Surveillance fails when it's extractive — data goes up, nothing comes back. Labs engage when it improves their own practice. www.amrsurveillance.org #AMRSurveillanceAddis

Reporting from the AMR Surveillance Convening at Africa CDC, Addis Ababa. Opening message was direct: the surveillance gap isn't about knowledge anymore, it's delivery and financing. Africa carries ~21% of the global AMR burden. Recap of Day 1 from www.amrsurveillance.org #AMRSurveillanceAddis

Nearly 90% of AMR pathogen genomes come from high-income countries.109 participants from 52 countries meeting in Addis Ababa to close this gap. www.amrsurveillance.org #AMR #HealthEquity #Genomics #AMRSurveillanceAddis
