AMR Voices: Stories From AMR Frontlines During Covid-19
The Longitude Prize announced the launch of AMR Voices – stories from the frontlines of antibiotic resistance during Covid-19.
This is a new collection of international case studies from the perspective of people living with or working to overcome antimicrobial resistant infections. With stories from the UK, US, South Africa and India, the report, provides a first-hand look at how the real-life experience and challenges of AMR collide with the realities of Covid-19.
Published by Nesta Challenges — home to the Longitude Prize, an £8m prize to accelerate the development of a point-of-care diagnostic test that will conserve antibiotics for future generations — the report is a warning shot that without action on the slow-moving pandemic of AMR, more lives will be lost and the fundamentals of modern medicine will break down.
