18 nov 2010 - Relaunch of the antibiotics awareness campaign

Description:

November 18 2010 sees the relaunch of the antibiotics awareness campaign.
Antibiotics are important medicines – they help fight infections caused by bacteria. Antibiotic resistance (when an antibiotic is no longer effective) is a major problem. It's one of the most significant threats to patients safety in Europe, and is driven by overuse of antibiotics and prescribing them inappropriately.
