Audio: Antibiotic Use Ran High In Early Days Of COVID-19, Despite Viral Cause

Doctors treating COVID-19 patients early in the pandemic often reached for antibiotics. But those drugs were not helpful in most cases, and overuse of antibiotics is a serious concern. Several research groups, at Johns Hopkins, the University of Michigan and Bristol, England, have observed this trend. Now researchers at the Pew Charitable Trusts have weighed in with more data and put those findings in the context of long-term worries about the fate of antibiotics. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that nearly 3 million Americans a year get an infection that s caused by a drug-resistant microbe. An estimated 35,000 Americans die from these hard-to-treat infections annually.
