In the battle against superbugs, every veterinarian, every farmer, and every physician must be a guardian to prevent the mis-use and over-use of antimicrobials to keep our medicines working. Watch this video to see how vets and dairy farmers in the UK are taking action to phase out regular use of high priority critically important antibiotics while maintaining or even improving animal health and productivity. How are they doing this? Good preventive medicine and good production practices, as well using antibiotics prudently when truly needed because they are a limited resource. Share this video to encourage more people to join in the fight against antimicrobial resistance!
