Referral: McKenna On World Health Day

As I noted in my blog yesterday World Health Day 2011, Maryn McKenna is Flublogia’s go-to person for all things antimicrobial. While her SUPERBUG Blog  covers an eclectic range of subjects, its primary focus has always been on antibiotic use, misuse, and resistance.

 

Her book SUPERBUG: The Fatal Menace of MRSA serves as a badly needed wakeup call on the rising tide of resistant organisms (not just MRSA).

 

With tomorrow’s World Health Day focusing on global antimicrobial resistance, it is not surprising that Maryn is all over the topic.  So I’ll just step out of the way and refer you to:
