16. We are poised to achieve complete and lasting victory over antibiotic resistance.

17. Together, We Can Change the Game #1 – As Consumers STOP INAPPROPRIATE ANTIBIOTIC USE IN LIVESTOCK #2 – As Patients STOP INAPPROPRIATE ANTIBIOTIC USE IN OURSELVES #3 – As Citizens/Taxpayers ACCELERATE SCIENCE BEHIND DIAGNOSIS OF RESISTANCE
