Antimicrobial Use during the SARS-CoV-2 Pandemic in a Greek Tertiary University Hospital.

In cases of SARS-CoV-2 hospitalization, despite low bacterial co-infection rates, antimicrobial use may be disproportionately high. Our aim was to quantify such usage in COVID-19 patients and identify factors linked to increased antibiotic use. We retrospectively studied patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection who were hospitalized at our institution during the pandemic.
