Help young people learn about anti-microbial resistance! Can you beat the bug?

Parents and teachers have a crucial role in protecting children’s health, empowering them to curb the rise of antimicrobial resistance by making responsible, informed choices. How much do the young people around you know about microbes?  

Beat the Bug is an immersive campaign for young people, parents, and teachers across the EU to learn about antimicrobial resistance and what we can do to prevent it. Join the European Commission's quest to defeat antibiotic resistance and defend the power of our amazing medicine. 

And if you know any gamers who are 16+, tell them to take on the Beat the Bug game on Fortnite 
They have until Antimicrobial Resistance Day on 18 November to join the leaderboard, but the game will still be available to play afterwards.
