APUA Comments on Public Health Action Plan to Combat Antimicrobial Resistance

The Alliance for the Prudent Use of Antibiotics (APUA) congratulates the Interagency Taskforce on Antimicrobial Resistance for compiling the Draft Public Health Action Plan and for bringing this important issue to the nation's attention. We see this draft as an historic step in developing an effective national campaign to curb antimicrobial resistance. We stand ready to help in any way.

We offer our suggestions in the spirit of collaboration to help shape the Final Action Plan. As the only non-profit organization dedicated totally to the issue, we offer the assistance of our affiliated scientific membership and public health staff to assist in refining and implementing the Action Plan.
