Antimicrobial resistance: a concise update
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a serious threat to global public health, with approximately
5 million deaths associated with bacterial AMR in 2019. Tackling AMR requires a multifaceted

New paper, led by Yaki Saciuk, out in @naturecomms.bsky.social
It's challenging to estimate the causal effect of antibiotic use on future resistance due to unmeasured confounding.
We leverage a new form of iv - reported allergy to penicillin.

Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major threat to human health.
Bur it's GROSSLY under reported
This study showed 4% of ALL deaths at a major London hospital were actually caused AMR but NONE were on the death certificate as cause of death.

#AMR is a risk to antibiotic failure & death, but if this happens, do we record it on death certificates? Our centre data = NO!
👉In 1 year, 4% of deaths were AMR-attributed & NONE were recorded on death certificates!👈
Need to quantify this better to increase awareness! #IDSky @jac-amr.bsky.social

Great piece about epidemiology, a science whose remarkable successes have profoundly shaped the modern world, even as those achievements often go unnoticed. #publichealth #epidemiology bigthink.com/health/the-d...
The dangers of keeping epidemiology the “hidden science”
Caitlin Rivers wants to tell the story of epidemiology and the public health heroes who keep the world safe and healthy.

Worked with this crew through the thick & thin of Covid over MSTeams. Met them in real life for the first time this week after nearly 4 years! Public Health England’s Joint Modelling Team for the pandemic. We went through a lot together, has been a special couple of days.

Sitting in the front seat of a double decker bus on my way to see a friend deliver a lunchtime seminar at my MSc university is definitely making me feel 18 again
