Priority pathogens: UK draws up new disease-threat watch list Some are viruses with global pandemic potential - like Covid - others infectious illnesses with no treatments.

UK draws up new disease-threat watch list. Will vaccine advances keep up with the accelerating of new, and potentially deadly viruses?

Antimicrobial Stewardship Amid Conflict: How MSF Syria Uses Global‑PPS to Improve Care - Global PPS Last week, Global-PPS held its annual meeting at the ESCMID Global 2025 congress. With over 160 participants, it was a vibrant and inspiring event.

How to foster AMS in a conflict zone? Our new interview with MSF Syria reveals how they use Global-PPS data to protect vulnerable communities with a focus on outpatient care.

#antibioticresistance is multifactorial, with this article highlighting #climate drivers of resistance. Demonstrating strong #ClimateandHealth interactions, it's yet another addition to the evidence that human health and #infectiousdiseases don't exist in a vacuum.

Chart: 7 red bars (animal antibiotics) tower over 3 blue bars (human antibiotics). 73% of global antibiotics go to factory farming.

73% of all antibiotics go to animals raised for food. Not to treat sick animals. To mask the disease that factory farming creates. We are burning our last medical defense so chickens can survive cages they should never be in. #AntibioticResistance #FoodSystems

Glaciers aren’t as pristine as we think.

They may be storing ancient antibiotic resistance genes for thousands of years and climate change could release them into our water systems.

A hidden risk in a warming world.
