Happy Antibiotic Awareness Week!!

This event is recognized from November 18th to the 24th by the CDC and WHO, and aims to increase understanding of antibiotic resistance and how interventions that we can make as both healthcare professionals and as members of our community.

This year’s theme is “Fighting Antimicrobial Resistance Takes All of Us,” and I hope that after this week, we will feel a little more empowered to make a difference, big or small, as antimicrobial stewards!
