Ricky Lannetti, a star college football player, was only 21 years old when a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection cut his life short in 2003. I had the honor of meeting Ricky’s mother, Theresa Drew, as she shared her son’s story earlier this month at two IDSA events highlighting the serious public health threat posed by antimicrobial resistance.
