During #WAAW2024 the ESCMID Executive Committee and Office are participating in the colour campaign and #GoingBlue!

#AMR is a serious threat to global health and all of ESCMID's leadership understand the need to educate, advocate and act now to address this crisis.

#WAAW2024 Wie arbeiten Menschen im Labor zusammen, um Antibiotikaresistenzen zu bekämpfen? Jährlich untersucht das @BVL_Bund etwa 4.000 Bakterienproben auf ihre Resistenz gegenüber #Antibiotika. Unser virtueller Rundgang stellt unsere Labore vor! 👩‍🔬 ▶️ https://sohub.io/f5b8
BVL - Laborräume

Tiere können nur gesunde Lebensmittel liefern, wenn sie einwandfreies Futter erhalten. Das BVL bewertet daher die Unbedenklichkeit von Futtermitteln.

"The rise of antibiotic resistance threatens life-saving medical procedures. Coordinated global action based on scientific evidence is crucial to combat this growing health crisis."

Check out this article by two of our AMR Action Subcommittee members exploring the importance of building connections between science and policy as we address the global concern of #AMR.

Building policy and science partnerships to combat AMR

Many lifesaving procedures in modern medicine are only possible because of the availability of highly effective antibiotics.

Wie entstehen #Antibiotikaresistenzen
➡️ Liegen antimikrobielle Resistenzen #AMR vor, sprechen Bakterien & Co. nicht mehr auf antimikrobielle Wirkstoffe an.
➡️ Antibiotika werden so unwirksam, Infektionen kaum bis gar nicht mehr behandelbar.

💊 #WAAW2024
Um die Resistenzen gegenüber #Antibiotika zu reduzieren, gibt es in der Tiermedizin einige Vorschriften, u. a. zur Förderung des umsichtigen Einsatzes von Antibiotika. Was wir am BVL in diesem Bereich machen, können Sie hier nachlesen:

The #ECDC has organised the European Antibiotic Awareness Day to emphasize that keeping antibiotics effective is everybody’s responsibility. Through promoting the prudent use of antibiotics we can help keep #AMR from rising quickly. #WAAW2024 #EAAD2024

Take care, not antibiotics

The over-use and misuse of antibiotics leads to antimicrobial resistance. If you have a cold or flu, take care, not antibiotics. European Antibiotics Awareness Day, a European Health Initiative. More information at: www.antibiotic.ecdc.europa.eu

EUROPEAN ANTIBIOTIC AWARENESS DAY
This is World Antimicrobial Awareness Week.
It runs every year from 18~24 November.

World AMR Awareness Week

The World AMR Awareness Week (WAAW) highlights best practices to help stop the further emergence and spread of antibiotic resistance.

Today kicks off World AMR Awareness Week #WAAW2024!

#AntimicrobialResistance is a major global health concern and one of the key pillars in ESCMID's strategy moving forward. This week we invite you to explore how #AMR affects the world and to "Educate. Advocate. Act now."

Animation Series Alert!🚨
For #WorldAMRAwarenessWeek, we have teamed up with PROTEA, @CAMO_Net1, @SouthAfricanASP, @IkamvaYouthSA learners, researchers, and Mitchell Messina to create a three-part animation series.

📷Keep a lookout for the full animations during #waaw2024
