Why Antimicrobials Are A Natural Resource Like Food & Water | ft. Dr. Kamini Walia

“One thing which we have not been able to convey about antimicrobials is that it is a natural resource…just like your food, air, and water.” In this episode of the Public Health Insight Podcast, we share a clip from our One Health Connect event hosted in 2021, where Dr. Walia provides a comprehensive overview of the Indian experience with Antimicrobial resistance (AMR), shedding light on the initiatives undertaken by her organization and herself over the past two decades. Addressing the pressing nature of AMR in today's world, she highlights its pivotal role in infectious disease management and the profound impact it has on global health.
