Excellent initiative by @AshokaUniv to organise discussion on strategies for Environmental Surveillance of Antimicrobial Resistance. Thanks @ShraddhaKB @baral_tweets for inviting me to be part of this discussion.
@AMRNowKe @UN @alliance_a_amr @amr_program @BufhsAMRClub78B @globalamrmedia @rwanda_amr @i_AMResponsible @official_MUAC @FAARAfrica @UYCAS256 It's rather GMT+2 and not +3
Thanks to @Sweden Ambassador on AMR Ms Main Grape for visiting @ICMRDELHI to discuss ICMR initiatives on #AMR and understand issues important from Indian perspective to inform the #UNGA #AMR high-level meeting.
The @GLGAMR chaired by @miaamormottley has just released its first report on #AMR with 10 recommendations for UN member states to consider for the #UNGA #HLM. The report estimates that AMR would cost the world every year US$ 412 billion in additional healthcare costs plus US$…

🔊CALL FOR ABSTRACTS! Join us at the ReAct Africa and @South_Centre Annual #AMR Conference 2024! Share your groundbreaking research on antimicrobial resistance with global experts. Submit your abstracts here: shorturl.at/entB0 Submission Deadline: April 30, 2024.
2014: Dr Raviglione who was @WHO Global TB Prog Director said: Treating world's deadliest infectious disease TB WITHOUT doing drug-susceptibility testing (DST) is clinical malpractice 2024: he said it is a CRIME to treat w/o DST youtube.com/watch?v=QG3wRV… #AntimicrobialResistance
As part of our commitment to making the educational material open-access and freely available to other medical schools, students and other stakeholders, we have previously handed over all the modules to @TNDPHPM The modules are also available here: tact-india.com/sos-amr-course/
In the current study, we targeted final year medical students (on the cusp of independent practice) across 5 medical schools in Chennai and evaluated the impact of an online educational intervention on improving AMR awareness and knowledge.
In prior work, @VJ_PublicHealth and I have demonstrated the poor coverage of topics related to AMR and stewardship in the Indian medical school curriculum: pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33318458/
One of the drivers of AMR is inappropriate prescription practices among physicians. We postulated that the problem may be more upstream in that medical students in India graduate with poor awareness of the enormous threat of AMR.
Our paper evaluating an educational intervention focused on improving awareness of AMR among final year medical students across 5 medical schools in Chennai is now published in the Journal of Medical Education and Curricular Development. Link to paper: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/23…

This is great news. However, UN member states should draw lessons & prevent the interference of #geopolitics during their negotiation. The #AMR crisis can change if the #HLM declaration yield specific commitments with ambitious targets & accountable body for each commitment.
