PLATINEA and Apotekarsocieteten coordinate event: What can we learn from covid-19 to improve access to antibiotics?

In a short time, the healthcare system and society have been quickly transformed to face the threat from the new coronavirus. International collaborations have been established, new supply chains have been established and new payment models for medicines and vaccines have been developed. How can these experiences contribute to increasing the availability of antibiotics in Sweden - in the short and long term?
