Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to map out and characterize existing health-promotion initiatives at Florida International University (FIU) in the USA in order to inform decision makers involved in the development of a comprehensive and a long-term healthy university strategy. Design/methodology/approach This study encompasses a narrative literature review on health promotion in higher education institutions and the identification and characterization of the various health-promotion initiatives associated with the subject of healthy universities at FIU. The characterization of health-promoting initiatives relied on the stakeholder analysis approach. Using the information obtained from this study, a map for promoting health initiatives with their location, capacities, leadership, and resources was established. Findings Most publications on health-promoting universities are limited to partial experiences’ reproduction. Self-financing health-promoting initiatives foster competition and work in silos. Gains of health-promotion interventions require governance, participation, and academic considerations. This study highlights the need for standards and minimum requirements for the mapping and characterization of health-promoting initiatives within institutions of higher education. The health-promotion strategy should fall within the university’s social responsibility policy. Originality/value This study helps identify organizational strengths and weaknesses and can inform decision makers seeking to establish policies and strategies as well as defining priorities and courses of action for healthy universities.

Abstract:
Analysis of the current socio-cultural situation shows that health promotion and maintaining health of the nation are formed as one of the priority areas and values of statehood and public consciousness. The principal social, economic and cultural changes that have taken place in Ukraine in recent years necessitate a revision of approaches to the modernization of the domestic health care system and the promotion of a healthy lifestyle. The current coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak literally locked down the whole world and isolated various continents, peoples, nations and countries from each other. Therefore this situation with pandemic clearly demonstrated the unpreparedness of both our country and the world’s most powerful states to resist global epidemics, the vulnerability of national healthcare systems and shortcomings in the field of health promotion. The purpose of this article is to outline and describe the main stages of Canada’s national strategy formation of health promotion. The article identifies the essential characteristics of the phenomenon of "health promotion". Recently, the problem of human health and a healthy lifestyle and its formation has acquired a new understanding and significance. The analysis of scientific and pedagogical literature testifies to the multifaceted phenomenon of a healthy lifestyle. Canada was the first country in the world to pay attention to the need of maintaining and strengthening the health of the younger generation by promoting a healthy lifestyle. This country was one of the first in the world to recognize the need for government assistance and regulation of healthy lifestyles. Analyzing the scientific and pedagogical literature, we can identify three stages of Canada’s national strategy formation of health promotion. The tasks of further scientific research are a more detailed theoretical analysis of each of the above stages, the drafting of prognostic recommendations with the possibility of taking into account the strategies of health promotion in the reform processes in modern Ukraine.

Abstract:
Campus or college is a place of education for people to seek knowledge. One of the essential components of campus sustainability is the existence of students. For this reason, each campus must have the right strategy in carrying out promotions, especially during the Covid-19 Pandemic as it is today. Because in a pandemic like this, many people are inevitably aware of the economy and health. So, the campus must have a strategy where the community continues to respond to the campus's promotions. Among the several promotional strategies to be right on target in this pandemic are conducting webinars, television broadcasts, radio broadcasts, advertisements on social media, placing banners, distributing pamphlets, and distributing campus marches. In carrying out promotions, wherever possible, keep prioritizing health by reducing the risk of covid-19 transmission. The promotion strategy in this pandemic must also pay attention to several factors for its implementation including available costs, human resources involved, the location of the activity implementation, the number of activities, and the risks associated with covid-19. From several promotional strategies and factors that support the smooth running of activities, a decision support system can be made that can help determine the campus promotion strategy. Decision Support Systems made using the TOPSIS (Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) method approach.Furthermore, the developing of decision support systems using the waterfall system development method. Based on the results and discussion of this study, it concluded that the TOPSIS method could be used to determine campus promotion strategies during the Covid-19 pandemic by building a decision support system. The results of determining the promotion strategy with a decision support system obtained the greatest value lies in V4, which means that the strategy for using social media is the most suitable for campus promotion during the Covid-19 pandemic.

Abstract:
INTRODUCTION: Reconciling the primary care sector’s traditional concern for individual health outcomes with a population health approach is integral to the implementation of New Zealand’s Primary Health Care Strategy, and a key challenge for health promotion in New Zealand. The purpose of this study was to examine the views of health promoters, their funders and managers toward the implementation of the Primary Health Care Strategy’s health promotion agenda. METHODS: Focus groups and interviews were carried out with 64 health promoters and 21 health sector managers and planners and funders over the 12 months beginning March 2008. Interview and focus group transcripts were analysed thematically. FINDINGS: Primary Health Organisations (PHOs) have been perceived as both an opportunity and a threat to health promotion. The opportunity was seen to lie in the development of health promotion responsive to the needs of communities. Yet the numerous PHOs that emerged spread funding and capacity for health promotion thin, particularly amongst smaller PHOs. CONCLUSION: The failure of the Ministry of Health to engage the health promotion workforce in the development and implementation of the Primary Health Care Strategy has led to a clear sense of vulnerability among health promoters. Ideological divisions between primary care and public health have been exacerbated by the restructuring of health promotion funding and delivery. Within non-governmental organisations and public health units concern continues to surround the legitimacy of health promotion approaches undertaken within the primary health care sector.

Abstract:
CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior
O cÃncer mamÃrio depende de aÃÃes pontuais da promoÃÃo da saÃde, proteÃÃo especÃfica e diagnÃstico precoce. A promoÃÃo da saÃde na reabilitaÃÃo da mastectomia mediante estratÃgias educativas pode ser eficaz, pois promove conhecimentos sobre saÃde, influencia as decisÃes para adoÃÃo de hÃbitos saudÃveis, assim como motiva uma aÃÃo desejada, articulando as intervenÃÃes apreendidas na manutenÃÃo da saÃde. Objetivou-se avaliar a tecnologia educativa (manual) implementada a mulheres mastectomizadas quanto ao conhecimento adquirido sobre aspectos ligados ao cÃncer de mama e à motivaÃÃo para mudanÃa comportamental no seu autocuidado por meio do Modelo TransteÃrico (MTT). Estudo avaliativo, descritivo, transversal e quantitativo. A intervenÃÃo avaliada foi o manual educativo sobre o cÃncer de mama e a reabilitaÃÃo. A amostra foi composta por 125 mulheres de acordo com critÃrios de inclusÃo, dentre eles, tempo de cirurgia (> 15 dias) e escolaridade (> 5 ano do ensino fundamental). A coleta foi realizada de abril a agosto de 2009 numa instituiÃÃo especializada em oncologia, em trÃs fases denominadas: preparatÃria, operacional I, correspondendo à aplicaÃÃo do questionÃrio prÃ-teste e escala URICA antes da leitura do manual, e operacional II, ao pÃs-teste e escala URICA apÃs a leitura. Os dados foram extraÃdos de questionÃrios prà e pÃs-teste (avaliaÃÃo do conhecimento) e escala URICA - University of Rhode Island Change Assessment Scale (avaliaÃÃo dos estÃgios de mudanÃa comportamental). Os dados receberam tratamento descritivo, sendo calculadas mÃdias, desvio-padrÃo, freqÃÃncias e percentis. Na avaliaÃÃo e comparaÃÃo do conhecimento, os resultados foram organizados em tabelas e grÃficos, sendo feitos os testes t-Student e McNemar, considerando significantes p<0,005. Sobre as caracterÃsticas das mulheres, a idade variou de 24-84 anos (m=51,66), predominaram casadas-viÃvas (63,2%), ensino fundamental (44,8%), ocupaÃÃo fora do lar (56%), renda familiar atà um salÃrio mÃnimo (44,8%, m=2,57), a maioria submetida a mastectomia (68%). Das que fizeram tratamento (N=122), 57,4% passaram por duas modalidades. A histÃria familiar apresentou-se em 81 (64,8%), sendo 74 (91,4%) em parentes de primeiro grau. Quanto ao conhecimento, o pÃs-teste aumentou 10% de acertos. Das questÃes, a mais acertada foi o nome da cirurgia (97,60%) e a menos, a reconstruÃÃo mamÃria (58,40%). Todas as questÃes foram estatisticamente significantes, exceto a dos cuidados com o dreno (p=0,743). Ao comparar o conhecimento apÃs a leitura, as mulheres revelaram melhor desempenho, exceto sobre a reconstruÃÃo mamÃria (p=0,754), nÃo sendo estatisticamente significante. No referente à motivaÃÃo, a menor media no pÃs-teste foi na prÃ-contemplaÃÃo (m=15; Dp=2,65). Na comparaÃÃo, encontraram-se diferenÃas significativas antes e depois na prÃ-contemplaÃÃo (p=0,0001) e na manutenÃÃo (p=0,0001), nÃo sendo encontrada diferenÃa na contemplaÃÃo (p=0,211). Para aÃÃo, houve forte indicativo de maior mÃdia no pÃs-teste em relaÃÃo ao prÃ-teste (p=0,051). A avaliaÃÃo do conhecimento e a motivaÃÃo apresentaram resultados positivos com distribuiÃÃes sem disparidades entre as mÃdias antes e apÃs a intervenÃÃo. Mesmo o estudo evidenciando a possibilidade de motivaÃÃo, a cogniÃÃo à fundamental para a compreensÃo e conseqÃente adesÃo Ãs orientaÃÃes. Conclui-se que o manual educativo à um recurso favorÃvel à reabilitaÃÃo da mastectomizada, pois motiva a mulher ao autocuidado e à promoÃÃo da sua saÃde.

Abstract: Aim: This study aimed at getting an understanding and critical analyses of the Ethiopian government empowerment strategy in improving maternal and child health in Ethiopia.Method: This is an ethnographic study, in which mainly un-structured interviews, focus group discussions and participant observation were conducted to collect data for the study. Results: The study concluded that the empowerment intiative has been promising to some extent in addressing the health concerns of women and children in Ethiopia. However, lack of bottom up health promotion strategies such as geniune community participation in the designing and implementation of the health program has greatly hindered the health promotion program from effectively improving the health status of women in the studied community.

Abstract:
Seasonal influenza, or the flu, impacts over 3 million people each year. Within the health sector, nosocomial infection and absenteeism are frequently associated with the flu. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommend flu vaccination for all eligible individuals, especially health care workers (HCWs). Interventions associated with increased HCW vaccination include educational programs and occupational health campaigns to address misconceptions regarding vaccine safety and efficacy. This project evaluated the impact of a voluntary, web-based education module to encourage registered nurse (RN) vaccination. The logic and health belief models served as the theoretical frameworks. In a nonequivalent group design, an educational program addressing evidence-based barriers to vaccination was delivered at 1 acute-care hospital and was not delivered at a comparison hospital within the health system. A total of 192 surveys (116 at intervention facility) were returned over 3 weeks. Statistically significant differences (x2 = 7.210, p = 0.007) were found for RNs who accepted influenza vaccination after education when compared to the RNs not receiving education. The 15% higher vaccination rate for RNs receiving education (91.1% vs. 76.1%) translates into more than 100 additional vaccinated RNs if applied across both hospitals. This project found that a simple but tailored web-based educational program is effective in converting RNs to vaccination acceptance. Increased vaccination produces societal change by reducing nosocomial and community influenza transmission. Reduced influenza infection improves community health as well as patient safety. Future work should address community-wide HCW education initiatives and evaluate their impact on quality and financial indicators at the hospital and community levels.

Abstract:
Malaria is a vector-borne disease that presents the most persistent and serious public health burden in Liberia. Numerous studies have examined the relationship between ITN use and malaria prevalence. However, little research has explored the effectiveness of ITNs in controlling malaria among children in postwar Liberia. The aim of this study was to examine the association between ITN ownership, parental economic status, ITN installation support, and malaria prevalence among children. This was a quantitative cross-sectional study guided by the health belief model. The study used secondary data from the 2011 Liberia Malaria Indicator Survey. Chi-square for association and Logistic regression were used to analyze the data. The results revealed a significant association between parental education and malaria prevalence. There was also a significant association between parental economic status and malaria prevalence. However, there was no significant association between ITN ownership and malaria prevalence after controlling for parental education and ownership of structure. These findings may foster social change by helping public health authorities in Liberia integrate ITN use with other strategies like mosquito larvae elimination and indoor/outdoor insecticide spraying as part of a comprehensive approach to malaria control. Additionally, massive awareness and economic capacity building should be undertaken to empower malaria endemic communities with the understanding that malaria can be rapidly reduced with other robust strategies in combination with ITN use. These strategies, if implemented, may effectively control malaria prevalence among children and the emotional and financial burdens endure by their families.

O fortalecimento da promoção da saúde considerando o espaço escolar como um ambiente de potencialidades para seu desenvolvimento está previsto nas ações intersetoriais entre a escola e os serviços de saúde, e está entre os objetivos centrais do trabalho da equipe Estratégia Saúde da Família (ESF) e do Programa Saúde na Escola (PSE). O estudo teve por objetivo analisar as significações de professores do ensino fundamental sobre as ações da equipe de saúde na escola em um município do interior paulista. O estudo foi realizado a partir de abordagem qualitativa de pesquisa, utilizando como técnica de construção de dados a entrevista semiestruturada com professores dos 1º aos 5º anos do ensino fundamental das escolas de abrangência de Unidades de Estratégia Saúde da Família de um município do interior paulista. Participaram do estudo 16 professores de seis escolas públicas municipais. A pesquisa fundamentou-se nos conceitos de promoção e educação em saúde, utilizando a abordagem histórico-cultural de Vigotski como referencial teórico. Utilizou-se a proposta de análise temática de Braun e Clarke (2006). Os resultados evidenciaram as significações construídas pelos professores, que indicam a importância da parceria entre saúde e educação. No entanto, outras significações indicaram fragilidades de tal parceria, com a tendência de os profissionais da educação significarem saúde a partir de uma concepção preventivista e de culpabilização das famílias pelos comportamentos não saudáveis dos alunos. Associado a isso, os professores relatam ações pontuais e fragmentadas relacionadas à saúde ocorrendo no contexto escolar, com pouca corresponsabilidade entre os setores. Quanto às ações programáticas de saúde, os professores construíram significações que indicam a importância de se construir um planejamento conjunto e identificaram estratégias para práticas intersetoriais mais efetivas. Considera-se que novas posturas devem ser adotadas pela equipe da ESF e do PSE, no sentido de fortalecer a relação com a equipe da escola, a partir de uma visão de que os sujeitos se transformam e se modificam a partir das relações
The strengthening of health promotion by considering the school space as an environment of potential for its development is foreseen in the intersectoral actions between the school and the health services and it is among the central goals of the work of the Family Health Strategy (FHS) team and Health in School Program (HSP). The aim of this study was to analyze the meanings of elementary school teachers about the actions of the health team in the school in a city in the countryside of São Paulo. The study was carried out from a qualitative research approach, using as a data construction technique the semi-structured interview with elementary school teachers from first to fifth grade of the schools surrounding the Family Health Strategy Units of a city in the countryside of São Paulo. Sixteen teachers from six municipal public schools participated in the study. The research was based on the concepts of promotion and health education, using the historical-cultural approach of Vygotsky as a theoretical reference. It was used the thematic analysis proposal of Braun and Clarke (2006). The results showed the significations built by the teachers that indicate the importance of the partnership between health and education. However, other meanings indicated fragilities of this partnership, with the tendency of the education professionals to mean health from a preventivist conception and blame of the families for the unhealthy behaviors of the students. Associated with this, the teachers report punctual and fragmented actions related to health occurring in the school context, with little co-responsibility between the sectors. As for programmatic health actions, the teachers built meanings that show the importance of constructing a joint planning and identified strategies for more effective intersectoral practices. It is considered that new postures should be adopted by the FHS and HSP team, in order to strengthen the relationship with the school team, based on a view that the subjects transform and change themselves from the relations

Abstract:
Os grupos de promoção de saúde são intervenções coletivas que buscam favorecer o desenvolvimento da cidadania. Tendo como recurso importante a educação em saúde, são grupos que estimulam a cooperação entre os participantes para o desenvolvimento de atividades a favor da conquista do que se é de direito a todo cidadão, uma vida digna. A relevância do tema somada a escassez de estudos nessa área foram as principais razões que motivaram a busca por conhecer as propostas já implantadas, as estratégias utilizadas, às contribuições desses grupos à população e os desafios a serem superados. Tratou-se um estudo descritivo exploratório, com uso da análise qualitativa. Foi aplicado em três Núcleos de Saúde da Família vinculados a uma Universidade e localizados no município de Ribeirão Preto. Contribuíram para esse estudo dezoito participantes entre profissionais de saúde e usuários que compartilhavam das intervenções. Os resultados apontaram para uma busca da equipe com vistas ao desenvolvimento e aprimoramento das ações grupais voltadas para a educação em saúde. Também foram identificadas estratégias exitosas que beneficiam principalmente as relações sociais e proporcionam bem estar psicoemocional ao usuário. Foi identificada atuação importante da equipe multiprofissional para a efetivação do trabalho. Como conclusão foi possível observar que apesar dos avanços, alguns desafios giram em torno da busca pela superação do modelo de assistência tradicional, organização de indicadores que auxiliem no aperfeiçoamento das estratégias e construção de novos sentidos que auxiliem na compreensão e atuação sobre as demandas individuais e coletivas.
Health promotion groups are collective interventions that seek to promote the development of citizenship. Having as an important resource health education, are groups that stimulate cooperation among participants to develop activities in favor of achieving what is right for every citizen, a dignified life. The relevance of the theme, coupled with the scarcity of studies in this area, were the main reasons that motivated the search to know the proposals already implemented, the strategies used, the contributions of these groups to the population and the challenges to be overcome. This was an exploratory descriptive study using qualitative analysis. It was applied in three Family Health Centers linked to a University and located in the city of Ribeirão Preto. Eighteen participants contributed to this study among health professionals and users who shared the interventions. The results pointed to a search of the team with a view to the development and improvement of group actions focused on health education. Successful strategies have also been identified that mainly benefit social relations and provide psycho-emotional well-being to the user. An important performance of the multiprofessional team was identified for the accomplishment of the work. As a conclusion, it was possible to observe that despite the advances, some challenges revolve around the search for overcoming the traditional assistance model, organization of indicators that help in the improvement of strategies and construction of new senses that help in understanding and acting on the individual demands and collective agreements

Abstract:
AbstractDespite its vital importance, health promotion has not occupied its due place in public health in Uganda. The country is engulfed into a rising wave of both communicable and non-communicable conditions. This rising burden of both communicable and non-communicable conditions turns health promotion and palliative care essential health care packages; though there is little to show that these two important programs are getting vital support at policy and service delivery levels. A new theoretical framework that is anchored into sociocultural issues is essential in guiding the design and delivery of both health promotion and palliative care in Uganda. The salutogenic theory puts socio-cultural issues at the centre of developing health promotion and palliative care and, seems to solve this dilemma. In this chapter, illustrations from indigenous communities in Uganda are employed to demonstrate the challenges to the health promotion and palliative care agenda in the country and how they can be addressed. Uganda Ministry of Health should develop robust structures within public health for development of health promotion and palliative care in the country. Research should be conducted on the effectiveness of the current strategies on health promotion and palliative care and their cultural sensitivity and appropriateness. Given the limited resources available for development of health care in Uganda, as an overall strategy, health promotion and palliative care should be anchored in public health and its (public health) resources.

Abstract:
AbstractAdolescents in Europe are generally the healthiest in the world, but significant opportunities to improve adolescent health and wellbeing remain across the WHO European Region, with investment in this life stage being vital to achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Activity in this area is guided by WHO Europe’s Child and Adolescent Health Strategy 2015–2020, which all 53 member states in the region endorsed. The strategy sets out principles and priorities, which countries adapt to their national needs, with WHO monitoring overall implementation. This chapter details initiatives that are guided by this strategy, that the WHO Regional Office for Europe oversee and have helped develop. This includes assessing causes of morbidity and mortality, development of adolescent friendly health services, development of tools and guidance for member states, supporting school-based health promotion and ongoing strategic development.

Abstract:
The WHO World Health Organization encourages PPP and believes that it is inevitable in healthcare because it represents significant opportunities. The WHO strategy is the promotion and protection of public health, which is presented in this way as well. Achieving the goals and economic launch of the PPP project requires a lot of resources and knowledge. The focus should be on the development of a methodology related to the preparation of a PPP project. PPP - partnership in healthcare is a strategy to increase efficiency. We will present the advantages and disadvantages of public-private partnerships in healthcare in the Republic of Serbia, in the Republic of Croatia, PPPPartnerships of Canada and healthcare in the UK-as well as development, legal regulation and institutional support.

Abstract:
Overweight and obesity are the first leading risk related to nutrition for global deaths, in the last few years it outranked the famine. Obesity increases the risk of several debilitating, and deadly diseases, including diabetes, heart disease, and some cancers. Due to the many health risks associated with obesity, the financial burden that the treatment of this disease exercises on the European healthcare system is enormous. For this reason, the best strategy relies in prevention. In particular, the pervasiveness of technology can leverage an important advantage for the promotion of healthy behaviors in the new generations. This paper introduces PEGASO, a technological multidisciplinary project funded by the European Commission that aims at creating an ecosystem that can enable teenagers to adopt healthy habits leading to a healthy life-style. The ICT system plays an important role in the PEGASO ecosystem. This behavior change support system integrates a Virtual Individual Model that allows characterizing the physiological status, physical condition and the psychological status for each user. This allows the elaboration of tailored interventions aiming at promoting the adoption of healthy habits by the users. This paper describes this concept introducing the Virtual Individual Model and discusses the possible interventions related to the promotion of physical exercise and of healthy dietary habits. At the end of the paper, some indications about the future development of the PEGASO project are provided.

Abstract:
This rapid review focuses on Global Health Diplomacy and defines it as a method of interaction between the different stakeholders of the public health sector in a bid to promote representation, cooperation, promotion of the right to health and improvement of health systems for vulnerable populations on a global scale. It is the link between health and international relations. GHD has various actors including states, intergovernmental organizations, private companies, public-private partnerships and non-governmental organizations. Foreign policies can be integrated into national health in various ways i.e., designing institutions to govern practices regarding health diplomacy (i.e., health and foreign affairs ministries), creating and promoting norms and ideas that support foreign policy integration and promoting policies that deal with specific issues affecting the different actors in the GHD arena to encourage states to integrate them into their national health strategies. GHD is classified into core diplomacy – where there are bilateral and multilateral negotiations which may lead to binding agreements, multistakeholder diplomacy – where there are multilateral and bilateral negotiations which do not lead to binding agreements and informal diplomacy – which are interactions between other actors in the public health sector i.e., NGOs and Intergovernmental Organizations. The US National Security Strategy of 2010 highlighted the matters to be considered while drafting a health strategy as: the prevalence of the disease, the potential of the state to treat the disease and the value of affected areas. The UK Government Strategy found the drivers of health strategies to be self-interest (protecting security and economic interests of the state), enhancing the UK’s reputation, and focusing on global health to help others. The report views health diplomacy as a field which requires expertise from different disciplines, especially in the field of foreign policy and public health. The lack of diplomatic expertise and health expertise have been cited as barriers to integrating health into foreign policies. States and other actors should collaborate to promote the right to health globally.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: The purpose of this systematic review is to examine studies that have assessed the effectiveness of health promotion programs with parental or family involvement for increasing moderate-to-vigorous physical activity in school-aged children. Condition being studied: Research has shown that parental or family support is positively associated with overall physical activity in children and young people. However, little is known about the differential effect of involving parents and family members when implementing interventions for promoting physical activity in children and adolescents compared with strategies that only rely on actions focused on the individuals or school environments. Information sources: A search strategy for articles will be carried out in the following databases: Embase, Pubmed, SPORTDiscus, Scopus and CINAHL. Also, a search from gray literature (academic google, Open Gray) and references from the articles found in the first stage will be conducted.

Full text
Abstract:
The Promotion and Practice Handwashing Kit (PPHWK), a robust, user-friendly handwashing station, and Mum’s Magic Hands (MMH), a creative hygiene promotion strategy, were evaluated in a clustered randomized controlled trial in Kyaka II refugee settlement in Uganda. The trial evaluated whether their provision increased handwashing with soap practice among residents, with a focus on three community intervention arms and two school-based intervention arms. The findings outlined in this report suggest that exposure to both the PPHWK and MMH increased hygiene knowledge and handwashing behaviour with soap, and improved health outcomes. Intervention households also preferred the PPHWK over existing handwashing stations, typically a basic bucket with a tap.

Full text
Abstract:
This study was designed to get a broad estimate of the presence and the types of antimicrobial resistance genes across 52 simple ready-to-eat foods. It was also carried out to understand the benefits and drawbacks of using metagenomic sequencing, a fairly new technology, to study AMR genes. An antimicrobial is any substance that kills or inhibits the growth of microorganisms. It includes antibiotics which are used to treat bacterial infections in both humans and animals. Given the relevant selective pressures, the bacteria itself can change and find ways to survive the effects of an antimicrobials. This results in the bacteria becoming resistant to the ‘killing’ effects of antimicrobials and is known as ‘antimicrobial resistance’. The more we use antimicrobials and antibiotics and the way that we use them can increase the chance that bacteria will become resistant to antimicrobials. This is important as it can lead to infections that become more difficult to treat with drugs and poses a risk to the public health. T Addressing AMR is a national strategic priority for the UK Government which has led to the development of a new 20-year Vision for AMR and the 5-year National Action Plan (NAP), which runs until 2024. The NAP lays out how the UK will address the AMR challenge and takes a ‘One-Health’ approach which spans people, animals, agriculture, food and the environment. The NAP includes a specific section on the importance of better food safety to limit the contamination of foods and spread of AMR. This section emphasises the need to strengthen the evidence base for AMR and food safety through research, surveillance and promoting good practice across the food chain. The FSA is playing its part by continuing to fill evidence gaps on the role that food plays in AMR through the commissioning of research and surveillance. We are also promoting and improving UK food hygiene (‘4Cs’ messages) across the food chain that will help reduce exposure to AMR bacteria.

Full text
Abstract:
CDC’s COVID-19: U.S. Impact on Antimicrobial Resistance, Special Report 2022, provides a snapshot of how the COVID-19 pandemic impacted antimicrobial resistance in the United States. Data have shown national progress in slowing the spread of antimicrobial resistance and preventing these infections is possible. However, the pandemic has undone much of the nation’s progress on antimicrobial resistance, especially in hospitals. CDC’s Special Report highlights the impact of COVID-19 on five core to combat antimicrobial resistance and on 18 pathogens, identified by CDC as urgent, serious, and concerning threats. The United States must continue to invest in the prevention-focused public health actions to combat antimicrobial resistance. CDC’s Antimicrobial Resistance Solutions Initiative has invested in domestic and global capacity to detect, respond, contain, and prevent the spread of resistance across health care, food, environment, and communities. These investments are working, but more work is needed. This was emphasized by the COVID-19 pandemic. CDC is exploring investments needed moving forward in the U.S. and global public health infrastructure to ensure a simultaneous response to the challenges of antimicrobial resistance and other emerging threats. The United States must continue to invest in preparing public health systems to address threats from multiple angles, simultaneously, and across One Health. If properly resourced, the United States can continue to build resilient domestic and global public health systems to keep our nation safe against the threats of antimicrobial-resistant pathogens.
