18th - 24th November is World Antibiotic Awareness Week. 

Without effective antibiotics many routine treatments will become increasingly dangerous. Setting broken bones, basic operations, even chemotherapy and animal health all rely on access to antibiotics that work.

It is important to remember that antibiotics do not treat or prevent viruses, including the one that causes COVID19. To slow resistance we need to cut the unnecessary use of antibiotics. We invite the public, students and educators, farmers, the veterinary and medical communities and professional organisations, to become Antibiotic Guardians.
