It's World Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Awareness Week 🌍 🦠

AMR occurs when bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites become resistant to treatment: increasing the risk of disease spread, severe illness and death.

At Eakin Healthcare, we remain committed to our responsibility in tackling the spread of drug-resistant pathogens. We protect many of our breathing circuits with BioCote®, an antimicrobial silver additive which limits the number of microbes on their surface.

▶️ Watch the animation below to see how BioCote® reduces the number of microbes on a surface by up to 99.5% in just 2 hours.
