Vaccines don’t just prevent disease, they also help fight antimicrobial resistance (AMR) 💉
By reducing infections, vaccines reduce the need for antibiotics.

#KOAMR #NationalVaccineDay #AMR

Quote from Professor Gordon Dougan on vaccines' role in combating antimicrobial resistance, featured in the Journal of Medical Microbiology.

💉Today is National Vaccination Day - Vaccines are a powerful yet underused tool against AMR. By preventing infections, they reduce antibiotic use and slow resistance.

The role of vaccines in combatting antimicrobial resistance Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is when harmful microbes – known as pathogens - evolve to evade the treatments used against them. If you've not watched our video on 'What is AMR and how can we solve it', go check that out first!

📽️ In part 2 of our Knocking Out AMR video series, we take a look at how vaccines play an important role in preventing the spread of AMR. This follows from our previous video on the fundamentals of understanding AMR🦠 #WAAW #KOAMR

Check out the full video here: microb.io/3X6kqKT microb.io/3X6kqKT

We're proud of what we have achieved so far and thank everyone who collaborated with us. But the work isn't done yet - we've got even more planned for KOAMR in 2026 so be sure to keep an eye on our channels for more!

Champion's WAAW 2024 Blog listing

To mark World AMR Awareness Week 2024, we asked our Champions to create activities to promote WAAW and our Knocking Out AMR project in their local communities. Find out about some of the amazing activities we funded from some of the Champions involved: microb.io/4kw5bVd #TBT #WAAW #KOAMR

Very thought provoking discussion this morning @UNGA, for me one particular point is what are we doing to combat #AMR, and what can I tell my children that I am doing …for me it’s #CAST-UTI with my fantastic collaborators in Uganda and #KOAMR @MicroSociety.

What are you doing?

>200 people have signed up to #KOAMR so far (in just over a week?!!).

Have you signed up yet?

Can we reach 1,000 people signing up before January??

This is the current issue of Microbiology Today with an editorial from Tina and me describing the #koamr project microbiologysociety.org/membership/m...

Knocking Out Antimicrobial Resistance The Microbiology Society is leading the way with the Knocking Out AMR project, an ambitious, bold and extensive scheme of work aiming to promote feasible and effective solutions to AMR.

The #KOAMR (knocking out AMR) work that Tina Joshi and I are leading with the Microbiology Society is now live on the website, please do register your interest 🙂
