Acute respiratory infections are the most common reason for seeking medical advice and antibiotic prescriptions. Differentiating between bacterial infection and non-bacterial etiology can be challenging. The majority of respiratory infections are caused by viruses and do not require antibiotics, yet antibiotics are prescribed in up to 50% of cases.

Antibiotic resistance continues to remain a major global health threat contributing to 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant illnesses and 35,000 deaths each year in the U.S. Join us as this panel of national experts details a new tool that promotes patient safety.
