Being Cornish, it was so encouraging to see a whole building dedicated to microbial life at The Eden Project. What a great whirlwind summary of how humans and microbes both share the planet and how we are vastly outnumbered! Nice to see @AnnaDumitriu 's work there @1Antruk

#AntimicrobialResistance can be a big challenge for doctors trying to treat lung infections associated with #CysticFibrosis. The story below, from the mum of an 8-year-old boy with #CF, shows the impact #AMR can have ⬇️ @cftrust @CFTrustYouth @CFAware @lungspodcast @cf_care
The 8-year-old boy described in this audio recording has cystic fibrosis. He now has a drug-resistant infection. Multiple antibiotics have been tried – each to no avail. If you have a story about #antibioticresistance, please share it here to help others: https://t.co/MVrKmRNJv9

In this #TEDx talk, a doctor tells her story of a patient with #AMR. He was young, newly married, had a ski accident and was treated, but died of a drug-resistant infection. This story could be about any of us. It's brilliantly told and very powerful. https://t.co/5LlyfMUfYd
