US Antibiotic Awareness Week (USAAW) takes place from November 18th to November 24th and is observed in the United States. It aims to educate the public and healthcare professionals about the proper use of antibiotics and the importance of combating antibiotic resistance. The initiative encourages individuals to get informed about antibiotics, ask questions regarding their use, and wear purple as part of the Go Purple campaign to raise awareness. The CDC provides resources for communities to enhance understanding of antibiotic resistance, and each year features a specific theme related to this issue. Overall, USAAW promotes responsible antibiotic use to help prevent the emergence of resistant bacteria.
