The AMR Narrative

AMR, or Antimicrobial Resistance, is a natural phenomenon where infection-causing microorganisms (germs) such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites evolve to become resistant to the antimicrobial medicines that were designed to treat them. These antimicrobial medicines include antibiotics, antifungals, antivirals and antiparasitics. AMR is a global health emergency, yet most patients and the public have never heard of it before. It is important that we can all play a role in protecting these life-saving medicines so they continue to work when we need them most. We've created this short video which explains the basics of AMR.

How do we know what to fight if #surveillance is insufficient? The data says we have done really well, but in comparison to the gaps? We have a lot of work to do. How far do you think we have gone with this objective? What do you think of our #Assessment ? #PAR

We're proud to announce that we are now registered with the @FundrRegulator To learn about our work and ways you can support us visit theAMRnarrative.org #theAMRnarrative #AMR #AntimicrobialResistance

How far have we gone with awareness and communication on #AntimicrobialResistance? This is the first objective on the global action plan and this is our assessment. What do you think? Fair? Let us know in the comments. #Goal1 #IncreaseinAwareness #WAAW2026

"AMR is often described as a 'silent pandemic', but for those living with it, the experience is anything but silent." – @theAMRnarrative #PreventAMRTogether

Simple practice. Strong prevention! #AMR #antibioticresistance #antimicrobialresistance #prevention #infectiousdiseases #washyourhands

From evidence → action. On 18 May, I’m convening an AMR roundtable at the House of Commons (led by @lmsrescon University of Hertfordshire), bringing some of #MPs at @ParliamentHouse, @UKHSA, @BSAC_org & @theAMRnarrative patient voices. herts.ac.uk/about-us/news-…

Today is #HandHygieneDay! Clean hands are one of the most effective ways to prevent infections and slow the spread of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Every infection prevented is one less opportunity for resistance to develop. #AntimicrobialResistance #AMR #theAMRnarrative
