🌊 World Antimicrobial Awareness Week (WAAW) 🌍 📅 November 18 - 24 Let's join the global campaign to raise awareness about Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) and its impact on health, aquaculture, and the environment. 💡 What is AMR? AMR happens when bacteria, viruses, fungi, or parasites become resistant to medicines, making infections harder to treat and increasing the risk of severe illness and death. It's a shared threat to humans, animals, plants, and ecosystems. 🐟 AMR in Aquaculture Aquaculture species, especially in shrimp farming, are vulnerable to AMR, primarily due to: Excessive use of antimicrobial veterinary medicines Intensive fish-farming practices Introduction of new aquaculture species Expansion of the ornamental fish trade 🚨 Impacts of AMR: ⚠️ Human Health: Resistant bacteria can spread to humans via food consumption. ⚠️ Aquaculture: Drug resistance weakens animal immunity and promotes virulent bacteria. ⚠️ Environment: AMR spreads to ecosystems, disrupting natural balance. 📊 The most reported AMR in aquaculture includes beta-lactams, tetracycline, sulpha groups, and multi-drug resistance, with alarming frequencies above 40%. 🌱 Let's Act Responsibly: Use antibiotics cautiously in aquaculture. Promote sustainable farming practices. Preserve aquatic health for a safer future. 💙 Together, we can tackle AMR. #AntimicrobialAwarenessWeek #WAAW #AMRinAquaculture #SustainableAquaculture #HealthyEcosystems
