The AMR Narrative’s Post

TY Lorenzo Pezzoli and Tania Cernuschi for your leadership. As Lorenzo recently wrote: "I don’t want a world where the World Health Organization lacks the resources to do its job—where outbreaks of meningitis and other epidemic diseases go undetected, where life-saving vaccines don’t reach those who need them most, and where preventable deaths continue because surveillance, diagnosis, and response systems are underfunded." I work with the World Health Organization on public and clinical health challenges; water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH), and the ongoing fight against cholera. WHO is fighting for a healthier future, and I am proud to be part of that fight and ensure that no matter where you live, you have a chance at a healthy life. That’s why I am pleased to have the opportunity to donate to the WHO Foundation to show that WHO is not just an institution; it is people, solidarity, and action. If 1 billion people give just $1, we can raise $1 billion to support WHO’s mission at a time when global health needs us more than ever. ➡️ Donate. ➡️ Share a photo holding up one finger in solidarity. ➡️ Tag 5 others to spread the word. WHO matters, and it’s ours to protect. Join me. https://lnkd.in/dEvjfkrG #HealthForAll #ProudToBeWHO #StrongerTogether #DefeatMeningitis #1Dollar1World

According to the CDC, about 60% of adults in the U.S. have at least one chronic disease, and 40% have two or more. Understanding these conditions is key to managing them effectively. Let’s use National Disease Literacy Month as an opportunity to educate ourselves and others on how to prevent and manage chronic diseases. #stepsfoundationinc #samismyreason #lifeskills #osceolacounty #kissimmeeflorida #kissimmeefl #saintcloud #saintcloudfl #saintcloudflorida #stcloudfl #stcloud #stcloudflorida #poincianaflorida #poincianafl #celebrationflorida #celebrationfl #nonprofit #nonprofitorganization #ipledgetomakeadifference #nationaldiseaseliteracymonth

The Power of Compassion: Join Our Outreach Initiative As we count down to our upcoming outreach, we can't help but think of the countless individuals who struggle to access basic healthcare services.

🌍 World Leprosy Day is observed this month, and we're dedicating the whole month to raising global awareness about this often-overlooked disease. Did you know? Leprosy is treatable, yet over 200,000 people are diagnosed with it every year. Unfortunately, many more go untreated due to stigma or lack of access to healthcare. At Effect Hope, we are committed to addressing the multifaceted challenges faced by those affected by leprosy. By advocating for early diagnosis, effective treatment, and comprehensive support, we strive to create a future where no one is left behind in the fight for dignity and health. ✨Follow us this month as we share stories, facts, and ways you can help create a world free of leprosy and its effects. Your support enables us to provide life-changing treatment, fight stigma, and offer hope to those affected. Donate today at effecthope.org/donate to help us continue this vital work and transform lives around the world. Every contribution brings us closer to a future free of leprosy. Together, we can make a difference! #LeprosyAwareness #EndLeprosy #BreakTheStigma #HealthForAll #GlobalHealth #FightStigma

🚨 Today is a Day of Awareness! 💙 November 14th marks World Diabetes Day. 🔵 The lack of proper management of type 2 diabetes can lead to serious health consequences affecting a person's daily life and work. Two out of every three diabetics are diagnosed with hypertension, which increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, vision loss, nerve damage, and kidney disease. In Guatemala, Mayan indigenous populations are disproportionately affected due to a lack of access to healthy foods, medical treatment, and equipment to monitor blood sugar and hypertension. Salud y Paz is committed to promoting good health habits and educating patients on how to manage chronic diseases like diabetes. Our work provides consistent support, essential medications and checkups to patients diagnosed at our clinic or during mission weeks. Almost half of the patients who come to our clinic and up to 15% of patients seen by mission teams live with a chronic illness. This work is not possible without you! This Giving Tuesday (Dec 3rd) we are raising funds so we can be a reliable partner for our patients. Be part of this work by helping us reach our $40,000 goal.
