antibiotic, according to independent

guidelines, only if needed and for the

right duration

Innovative surveillance tools: to help physicians better understand current resistance

patterns

Global policy leadership: to facilitate antibiotic development,

proper use, and access to medicines and vaccines

Diverse portfolio: medicines and

vaccines to help treat and prevent serious infections around

the world

manufacturing practices that
