AMR: A global issue

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is an urgent global health threat. A study published in the Lancet in January estimated that in 2019, over one million people died from drug-resistant infections directly attributable to AMR.

I’ve posted about this concern many times (see here and here ) since Cystic Fibrosis sufferers are wholly life reliant on antibiotics in many forms (oral, nebulised and intravenous). I once read, that without antibiotics, life expectancy with CF would be less than 3 years.

Weirdly I am on the ‘expert panel’ at this event, so if you’re interested, take a peek. 

Have a great day x
