This fall/winter, most patients with a flu-like illness will need to be tested for both #Influenza & #COVID19

We’ll need rapid assays that can test for both viruses

#Vaccination for flu will be more important than ever, to reduce the overall incidence of flu-like disease

[World Health Organization (WHO) @WHO]

It's World Antibiotics Awareness Week.

The rise of #AntibioticResistance is threatening our ability to treat common infectious diseases, resulting in prolonged illness, disability & death https://t.co/w4YUB5Lmgd

The future of #antibiotics depends on all of us.

[Allison McMullen, PhD, D(ABMM) @dralliegator]

Excited to discuss antimicrobial resistance for the next two days!!!
