Play Your Part to Combat Antimicrobial Resistance Using Infection Prevention Best Practices Makes A Difference |
---|
Although U.S. Antibiotic Awareness Week has come to an end, we can continue to combat antimicrobial resistance (AR) by improving how we use antibiotics and antifungal drugs all year long. Antibiotics and antifungals are some of our most powerful tools for fighting life-threatening infections – but AR will continue to develop, even against new drugs.

You can take simple steps to protect yourself and your family by reducing your risk of infection, including antimicrobial-resistant infections. In healthcare facilities, frontline healthcare workers also play an important role in fighting AR with infection control [PDF - 1 Page]. These actions help slow the development and spread of AR and preserve the power of antibiotics and antifungals:
- Keep your hands clean and practice good hygiene
- Stay up to date on recommended vaccines
- Improve how you use antibiotics and antifungals for people, animals, and plants
- Practice safer sex
- Prepare food safely
