Thank you very much for your question. You are right that there are a lot of unnecessary prescriptions, particularly—I always think of that 30%—in community environments where practitioners are often a little more siloed and aren't in formal microbial stewardship programs.
CPhA has taken some good leadership over the last year in increasing the awareness to its own profession, particularly in primary care, where there hasn't been a lot of education, and even more so for primary care pharmacists, regarding how they can step up.
I agree with you on the next step. To echo my colleagues, Yoshiko and others, this is a team sport, and without collaboration we can't solve this, so it's very important to have a very strong interprofessional focus on education, on practice, on prescribing, on patient education, and on all elements of antimicrobial stewardship. That's definitely something we will be looking at this coming year, starting with education.
