    There’s a new antibiotic which can be made specifically for each gram-negative bacteria. Due to it being so selective, the impact of making other bactiera resistant is no longer an issue. Additionally, we’ve got to get back to studying bacteria phages in detail. These are viruses which only attack bacteria and they evolve faster than bacteria. But phages were written off after the discovery of penicillin. These numbers are scary, but thankfully there’s many intelligent folks working to prevent this from happening!
