Description: Although only a small number of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 present with a secondary bacterial pneumonia, a large percentage are unnecessarily treated with antibiotics. Pamela M. Peeke, MD, MPH, FACP, FACSM, is joined by George Sakoulas, MD, to discuss how physicians and hospitalists can identify when antibiotics are unnecessary for hospitalized patients with moderate to severe respiratory infections. Dr. Sakoulas is chief of infectious disease at Sharp Rees-Stealy Medical Group in San Diego, California, and an adjunct professor in the Division of Host-Microbe Systems and Therapeutics Center for Immunity, Infection, and Inflammation at the University of California San Diego School of Medicine in La Jolla, California. This podcast is sponsored by bioMérieux.
