Interesting point prevalence of antimicrobial use in #CareHomes including prophylactic use - interesting to compare with PRINCESS data @kerryhood @DaveGuk87 ? Higher use found in the 10 care homes in Wales (all N Wales I think) than England

[CDC Director @CDCDirector]

To fight AR, we will share data, prevent & control infection, improve antibiotic use, & develop new vaccines & drugs. Nearly 200 partners have committed to these steps. Together, we can see the possible! https://t.co/41GPcAhJwM
