Diabetes Fighters Trust

Happy New Year 2026!! 🎉🎉🎉

@PTI_News @sarithanair17 @MridulaKapil Grateful to Press Trust of India (PTI) for amplifying the conversation on #AntimicrobialResistance and #Diabetes. These are interconnected public health challenges that demand urgent, integrated action. @MridulaKapil

VIDEO | Delhi: On PM Modi’s remarks on antimicrobial resistance, public health expert and founder of Diabetes Fighters’ Trust, Mridula Bhargava (@Mridulakapil), says, “We are seeing that antibiotics are no longer as effective as before. PM Modi highlighted ICMR’s findings, which show increasing resistance against commonly used antibiotics in India. Protecting antibiotics is crucial for the country’s public health security and the long-term sustainability of the health system.” #AntimicrobialResistance #PublicHealth #ICMR (Source - Third party) (Full VIDEO available on PTI Videos – ptivideos.com)

PM Shri @narendramodi ji highlighted @ICMRDELHI findings on rising resistance to common #antibiotics in India. What’s often missed: #diabetes & other #NCDs increase risk of infections, antibiotic use, and faster #AMR. These are interconnected public health risks #Antimicrobial

Listen to the most talked-about topic GLP-1 drugs — Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro. They’re the hottest ticket in pharma. But are they overshadowing the real fight — insulin access and Type 1 diabetes care?” youtube.com/clip/UgkxwTIzB… @Jandelliott @LMenghaney @glucomundo @MridulaKapil

@ncdalliance @WHO It's very unfortunate that children and young adults become the primary target. How can we as an organisation get involved with you to take action on this?

📚Two new @WHO reports explore global taxation of alcoholic & sugar-sweetened beverages, revealing missed opportunities for action. Join us in January for the launch of the reports, and let’s #ActOnNCDs by protecting people from harmful products together 👉bit.ly/Alcohol_SSB_ta…
