On the 30th of April 2024 we were once again blessed with the presents of the 4th year medical University students, who came down to give us a but more insight knowledge regarding Antibiotic resistance and bacteria in general.
It took the students by shock to see what little knowledge people had when it came to this topic and how people generally don't really know the importance of Antibiotics and what they do to your body. With that being something on top of their list to change, they were more than happy to come to BushRadio and share their knowledge that they have with the Community.
A few quick important pointers that were raised in the interview by our future leaders regarding antibiotics were:
- Never to share Antibiotics that were prescribed for someone else by their doctor.
- Always make sure to finish your Antibiotics as mentioned to you by your doctor.
- Do not consume old antibiotics that have been laying around in your house.
- If you need to know more about antibiotics before consuming any do refer to your pharmacist at you nearest pharmacy.
The Medical Team also took it upon themselves to host a community engagement in Heideveld which gave the community of Heideveld a bit more of an insight when it comes to Antibiotics, and of course not to make things too serious as one of the students mentioned they also played games with them to feel a bit at ease. One would say to take a "chill pill" which is a common phrase used to something that has a relaxing or calming effect.
Most importantly the message regarding Antibiotics was given through and of course as Lana mentioned during the interview you are able to speak to your doctor about it and also visit the World Health Organisation page were they have a lot more detailed information for you.As the students are currently busy doing their practical's we wishing them all the best moving forward in their medical journey and definitely want to hear from them soon.
