Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a growing crisis in Sub-Saharan Africa, with 23.7 deaths per 100,000 people, a figure that surpasses the combined mortality rate of several endemic diseases. This urgent health threat demands immediate global action. #AMRLandmarkReport

Measles is not a ‘harmless childhood’ disease but can have very serious complications even death.. Fortunately it is avoidable.. Why risk the health and well-being of a child when a safe and highly effective vaccine is readily available? politico.eu/article/uk-disea…

Help avoid unnecessary antibiotic use and the dreaded "Bali Belly" related illnesses by getting your travel vaccines before heading abroad to surf. Surfing in South East Asia and parts of Africa comes with risk of contaminated water and typhoid. #surfing #wsl #WAAW23
