Antibiotics - the beginning or the end?
- The world is running out of antibiotics: “A post-antibiotic era means, in effect, an end to modern medicine as we know it.” Dr Margaret Chan, Director-General WHO, 14 March, 2012.
- Finding new antibiotic classes is too difficult, too slow and too costly.
- Rejuvenating old antibiotics with Antibiotic Resistance Breakers could be an important way forward.
