Currently, antibiotic-resistant infections contribute to *99,000 deaths
each year* in the U.S., and the problem is getting worse. So what can the
concerned public do to help? As it turns out, *there’s a lot we can do. *
The 3-minute animated video explains the emergence of antibiotic resistance
and gives viewers a broad picture of the issue from a *natural resource
perspective*. It also serves as a call to action for concerned consumers,
parents, and patients to *limit their use of antibiotics *in order to
preserve their effectiveness for future generations. The video was made
possible by funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation.
Please join us in sharing this video widely via email, blogs, and social
