@72kilos No matter where we are – at home, in healthcare settings, on farms, in schools or in kitchens – good hand hygiene is a simple but powerful way to protect people, animals and our shared health.

@72kilos Washing our hands regularly – before cooking or eating, or after using the toilet, touching animals or being outdoors – helps stop infections before they start.

@72kilos I liked the idea of including one of my children talking to the 300 million microorganisms we have on our dirty hands. He represents the entire European population, and I believe he does so brilliantly”.

@hugleikur Veterinarians play a key role in using antibiotics and other antimicrobials wisely and protecting public health. Antimicrobials should only be given to animals when prescribed by a veterinarian and should be used according to the recommended instructions.

@hugleikur And when I thought about it more, I realized the concept is kind of incomprehensible to me too. I know they’re there — but only because people smarter than me told me so. So, I put myself in the animals’ place and drew this picture”.

Veterinarians protect everyone’s health    By Hugleikur Dagsson (@hugleikur)  “I found it funny to think about how the concept of “bacteria” is completely incomprehensible and foreign to animals.

This reduces the need for antibiotics and other antimicrobials and lowers the risk of superbugs and resistant microbes emerging. 🔗Discover the complete story of #SketchingAntimicrobialResistance at https://t.co/KEAI3gTpcI #EAAD #WAAW @EU_Commission @EU_HaDEA @EU_Health @NIJZ_pr

@KarikaturaLv Antibiotics are a type of antimicrobial made to fight bacteria, not viruses. They cannot help with colds or flu. Taking them when we do not need them does not get us better, it just gives the bacteria living in our bodies a chance to become resistant microbes harder to treat.
