YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

The Caribbean Public Health Agency (CARPHA) is taking a major step towards expanding its laboratory testing capacity with the official opening of its Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) Regional Reference Referral Laboratory in Saint Lucia. The laboratory is equipped to carry out advanced testing to identify germs and bacteria and to determine which medicines can still effectively treat them. This type of testing is especially important in addressing the growing problem of antimicrobial resistance, which occurs when common medicines such as antibiotics stop working. Samples from across the Caribbean can now be securely transported to the Saint Lucia lab for advanced testing, with results returned swiftly to support patient care across member states.
