The recent publication of several scientific reports suggesting that many bacterial strands are developing resistance to antibiotics points to the emergence of a global crisis.
As more and more dangerous bacteria become unresponsive to strong antibiotics, researchers have started looking for alternative means of fighting these “superbugs.”
Recent studies have investigated the usefulness of some surprising therapies against antibiotic-resistant bacteria, including using a specific bacterium that lives in Irish soil and experimenting with new drug combinations.
