A few more resources to close out the Get Smart: Know When Antibiotics Work and Get Smart for Healthcare campaigns this week.
First, Ramanan Laxminarayan (Director of ETC) and Arjun Srinivasan (Associate Director for Healthcare-associated Infection Prevention Programs for CDC s Division of Healthcare Quality Promotion) talk about why we need antibiotic stewardship on the Health Care Blog.
Then, Ramanan Laxminarayan discusses the just-unveiled ResistanceMap from CDDEP and ETC. ResistanceMap is a new graphic tool for visualizing the progression of antibiotic resistance. Read about it on CDC’s Smart Healthcare Blog.
