[REDACTED USER] Yes citizen co-production is crucial to building awareness about #AMR #hcsmsa
@DrJayVarma
T1. AMR is complex to explain, even for specialists. Must engage civil society on issues that mitigate AMR & are ethically imperative. Hospitals free from infection, food free from drugs, access to quality drugs and diagnostics #hcsmSA [REDACTED USER]
FIND @FINDdx
T1 It's also key to raise awareness among #healthcare professionals, e.g. re #diagnostics to ensure correct prescription #hcsmsa
@DrJayVarma
T1. Agree with [REDACTED USER] that we need compelling stories to engage public & leaders to act. Let's learn from climate change. Where are the movies, the celebrities, the human interest stories? #hcsmSA [REDACTED USER]
Dena van den Bergh @inspired2leadQH
T1 if every health professional takes a few minutes to talk about #AMR to their patients it would be so powerful #credibility #hcsmsa
Dena van den Bergh @inspired2leadQH

@DrJayVarma
T2: Surveillance starts with diagnosis. Doctors don't offer it, patients don't demand it, governments don't enable it. We need to push demand for accurate, point of care diagnosis for all suspected infectious illness. #WAAW18 #hcsmSA [REDACTED USER]

T2 Once we have data we need to ensure surveillance data is understood and accessible #hcsmsa
@DrJayVarma
T2: We must engage animal health and animal rights communities as well to ensure diagnosis of disease in animals, especially those raised for food. Many resistant bugs emerge on factory farms. Bugs need to be diagnosed & tracked. #hcsmSA #WAAW18 [REDACTED USER]
Dena van den Bergh @inspired2leadQH
@e_charani T2 Yes indeed and we have much more data than we think #hcsmsa
FIND @FINDdx
T2: national #surveillance programmes need to feed into global/regional ones - CF #hcsmsa
Dena van den Bergh @inspired2leadQH
[REDACTED USER] So many of the issues start with primary care prescribing - more behavioural research needed #hcsmsa

[REDACTED USER] Strategic planning and daya to day use too #hcsmsa

Need clear messages to patients abt what they can do at individual level to make difference. Lesson from climate change = talking about global impact & impending doom less likely to change behavior than simple direction about how 1 person can make a difference #hcsmSA [REDACTED USER]

T3. Infection control in healthcare facilities: clean water systems, hand washing, waste disposal, sterilized instruments. Need to generate demand from patients that hospitals must be free from infections & hold hospitals and governments responsible #hcsmSA #WAAW18 [REDACTED USER]

[REDACTED USER] T3 Great idea - engaging patients is crucial #hcsmsa

T4. Little guidance in most of Africa for how to diagnose and what to treat with. Guidance that exists rarely based on local data. Better data, better guidance, and, most important, stewardship programs for pharmacies, doctors, and anyone that dispenses. #hcsmSA [REDACTED USER]

T4 - Like a calorie counter how about an antibiotic count of all antibiotic exposure - those we take and rest food, environment etc #hcsmsa
