- Abstract:
The article discusses the threat posed by bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics. In the U.S. some 100,000 people die annually from such infections. Since the mid-1980s the discovery of new antibiotics has slowed markedly. Many drug companies have abandoned antibiotic research for more lucrative fields. INSET: A LOSING BATTLE.
