#AntimicrobialResistance is when medicines like #antimalarials, tetracycline, septrin, and amoxicillin no longer treat diseases they cured previously.

Everyone everywhere, including users and non-users of #antimicrobials has a role to play to prevent #AMR.

#BeAntimicrobialsAware
#Antimicrobials are vital in fighting infectious diseases across humans, animals, and plants.

However, their effectiveness is diminishing, leading to a growing and urgent crisis known as #AntimicrobialResistance.

Let’s promote the responsible use and work together to combat #AMR.
Happy Children’s Day! 🎉

Every child deserves a healthy future. Protect our children by using antibiotics responsibly and only when prescribed by a qualified healthcare professional.

Together, we can help combat antimicrobial resistance and keep our children safe and healthy.
