Did you know? Antibiotic-resistant infections were a leading cause of death worldwide in 2019 – causing more deaths than HIV/AIDS and malaria. While every person is susceptible to infections, people with cystic fibrosis are especially prone because of the thick, sticky mucus in their lungs.
Join advocates from the cystic fibrosis community this Thursday, March 17, during our Online Day of Action ([link removed]) in asking Congress to take on the issue of antibiotic-resistant infections by championing the PASTEUR Act.

TAKE ACTION ([link removed])

The PASTEUR Act would provide consistent payments to antibiotic developers for access to their products, offering a sustainable incentive structure that does not currently exist. This would help much-needed antibiotics stay on the market and be available to those who need them, like people with CF, while also encouraging appropriate use.
You can help amplify the voice of the CF community by asking your members of Congress to co-sponsor the PASTEUR Act. Together, we can ensure Congress understands why antibiotic-resistant infections cannot be ignored. 

Until CF stands for Cure Found.

Sincerely,

Mary Dwight

Senior Vice President and Chief Policy & Advocacy Officer
