We’ll Never Miss a Flu Shot Again I typically stay on top of vaccines. But in 2023 we were late with flu shots–a mistake I will never make again.

Sophia got the plain old flu, and developed a rare but real complication. Her mom says she'll never miss a flu shot again and hopes you get yours.

It's devastating knowing that children are being exposed to lifetime and life-threatening illness once again that could have been avoided with a vaccine.
We can't stop reaching out to the parents of these kids with compassion and out-stretched hands. Every child vaccinated matters!

This is a great idea for a series! It could be a fun one too where we could ask people to submit short videos of themselves performing the tip!
Thank you!

Have you ever tried those head compression things? I get a lot of headaches and it works better than I feared, but from reading the reviews a lot hangs on your head size, which is like...can't they make a better product?!?

PT2 ...to mean that painkillers could increase resistance. (Tho this would be a risk associated with long-term use of painkillers, since it requires a pretty substantial change to the heavy metals in the body to start seeing affect on resistance).

It's known that higher concentrations of heavy metals tend to increase AMR (b/c metals increase mutation rates). Some painkillers also tend to impact the kidney's ability to remove heavy metals, and the combination is hypothesized, tho to my knowledge not fully vetted...PT1

It was super interesting to learn more about these studies showing common pain relievers, when combined with antibiotics, spreading AMR!

C-diff is definitely something we need to talk about more! Yeah, many bacteria, like staph, hitch a ride into hospitals on people’s skin. I read that during COVID, AMR prevention took a backseat due to staff shortages, which drove up AMR cases. I’ll add C-diff to our list of topics to cover!

One of our team members noted avian & swine flu get more attention because of their economic impact. Other diseases don’t carry the same weight. But with AMR, that could change. The pathways for zoonotic diseases (animal waste, handling) remain the same, yet the danger of those diseases is greater.

Apologies for the late replies! I wanted to give you informed answers so I consulted some other members of our team. 😄
There is definitely not enough info on AMR's impact on zoonotic diseases!

I'm so happy to hear that! That's our goal! 🥳
Is there any particular topic regarding antibiotic resistance that u r interested in learning more about I can focus on this wk? For ex: pets, livestock, the environment (wastewater, crops, wildlife), human health, crisis' like war or climate change, ect

Thank you so much!!! I too have found these starter packs quite helpful and look forward to checking this one out too!

#AntibioticResistance can impact any of us, but we know some folks are more at risk than others. We all have loved ones who fall into one or more of the high-risk categories so let us all stay vigilant in the fight against infections, including #AntimicrobialResistant pathogens. #AMR

Real talk, #AntibioticResistance is getting serious and that means that some common illnesses will be harder to treat. To address the problem the first thing is we need a lot more people to know there is a problem - so tell everyone you know: #AMR is serious.

Antibiotics can fail as bacteria evolve to resist them. #AntibioticResistance is a growing health threat! In some areas, common infections and minor injuries are becoming life-threatening due to resistant bacteria. Here's how you can help: #HandSanitizer

Infection prevention and our body's natural infection control are two of the most powerful tools we have in the fight against growing #AntibioticResistance. Here are some things we all can do to reduce our chances of an #AMR infection.
