#Sepsis is a #globalhealth health priority. Children and infants are one of the most vulnerable groups. Spread the word and help raise sepsis awareness.
#DYK? New nationwide testing in 2017 uncovered 221 instances of unusual #AntibioticResistance genes in “nightmare bacteria.” Early and aggressive action can keep germs with unusual resistance from spreading in healthcare facilities. https://t.co/KhitQdxrBZ #VitalSigns
We thank all physicians who have helped their patients #GetAheadofSepsis. Spread the word about our free sepsis educational resources.
