Delighted to attend and commence the @AREST_AMR public engagement/project end meeting — Dearbhaile Morris and her large consortium should be very proud of their many high quality outputs that speak to #AMR, the environment and human health!

Well done to my @EUErasmusPlus trainee Aneta Kovarova who presented her work on #AMR in mute swans @ECCMID 23. Thanks also to @GrahamProle and the Midlands Ringing Group for their collaboration and @EPAResearchNews for part funding. #OneHealth @arme_morris @AREST_AMR

Our @DESIGN_UCC study on #STEC in Irish private wells is available now in @STOTEN_journal 🥳 Huge thanks & congrats to all co-authors! Thanks to all well owner volunteers & to @EPAResearchNews for funding! Our work continues with @GalwayDERIVE project doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.…
Highlights of study: 52 groundwater wells were sampled in western ireland Shiga toxigenic E. coli (STEC) was detecgted in 19.2% of wells and in 40% of wells where E. coli was present. Multiple clinically relevant STEC serogroups were detected in wells with 20 cfu/100 mL E. coli or more Risk factors for well contamination with STEC were increased 30 day mean antecedent rainfall, decreasing well depth and increasing septic tank density

33 areas currently discharge raw sewage daily as they have no treatment plant. EPA welcomes the news that Irish Water will soon commence building a new treatment plant and sewers at Kilmore Quay in Wexford. Work due to be complete in 2024 #EPAOEE #IrishWater

A new EPA report shows only 1 area stopped putting raw sewage into our waters in 2019. This left 34 areas putting 4 Olympic sized swimming pools of sewage into our seas and rivers every day in 2020! Govt action on waste water is way too slow and too little. This MUST change.

Save the date ‼️ #AMR is a high priority for EMA. We cannot get to the point where #antibiotics no longer work to treat or prevent infections. On 19 Nov, we are organising a chat on #AMR with @EU_Health, @ECDC_EU and @EFSA_EU. #EAAD #WAAW #AMR xitter.gq/i/spaces/1vAxRkoQDXkKl…
