🚨🥳 YET ANOTHER EXCITING HIGHLIGHT

Let's take Antibiotics Correctly take them only when needed and prescribed, take them for the correct duration and with the correct frequency.....

Dr. Ntyuuma Muyunda writes

"Guard our Gifts. Secure today's Medicines for Tomorrow."

Dr Muyunda held his community engagement as part his assignment under the 2025 AMR CIA Training Fellowship during the World AMR Awareness Week (WAAW) yesterday.

His target community was the Church, specifically the Livingstone City SDA church in Highlands Community, Livingstone, Zambia.

"It was a health talk" he said, "targeted at antimicrobial abuse. Often times people take antibiotics for even viral infections. I will sensitize the community on the dangerous effects of antimicrobial misuse.
My Objectives included; To educate people on the right steps to take when it comes to antimicrobial use. To encourage good stewardship and abash misuse of antimicrobials.

My name is Dr. Ntyuuma Muyunda, I am a clinician who has seen the devastating impact of bacterial infections up close, in hospitals and in the community.
​I stand for the Sanctity of Treatment. This means that every person, regardless of where they live or their economic status, deserves the certainty that a simple medicine can cure a common illness. I believe in the fundamental promise of modern medicine; that infections should not be death sentences.
​I am engaging in the 2025 AMR CIA Training Fellowship because the current battlefield is not just the hospital ward. It's the policy room, the legislature, and the global conference stage. My reasons are rooted in my clinical experience and my need to effect change beyond the bedside.
My activity was focused on translating the Fellowship’s strategic knowledge into tangible, patient-centric solutions that I can implement and champion back home."
