Folks still ask me 'Does measles matter- isnt it just a mild rash and fever?' 😷1-2/1000 kids will die. Would you drive your car if 1/1000 death rate? Of course not... 🤒So so easy to spread 💉Infectious 4d BEFORE u get classic rash, so U dont know to self-quarantine... so yes!

Please share this with your colleagues! This competitive grant is for early career investigators (within 5 years post training) pursuing a career in healthcare epidemiology and antibiotic stewardship.

Last week, we hosted a group from The Centre for Tropical Medicine in Hanoi, Vietnam who are part of the Oxford University Clinical Research Unit. they spent the week learning how we combat antimicrobial resistance in the US, as well as teaching us how their programs work.

Core Antimicrobial Stewardship Interventions in Community Hospitals ja.ma/2P2EmxT Key message: core, active stewardship interventions are feasible in community hospitals, even if no ID expertise. Post-Rx review more feasible and effective than restriction

Adapting Antibiotic Stewardship to the Community Hospital ja.ma/2P1sufE Be sure to checkout the excellent and thoughtful accompanying editorial by Daniel J Livorsi Eddie Stenehjem and Heather Reisinger. We need more AS trials in community hospitals!

Thanks to the @NIAIDFunding and the ARLG (arlg.org) for making this study a reality. We need more funding for AS trials!
