Antibiotics have been a critical public health tool since the discovery of Penicillin in 1928, saving the lives of millions of people around the world.

resistance in bacteria is reversing the miracles of the past eighty years, with drug choices for the treatment of many bacterial infections becoming increasingly limited, expensive, and in some cases, nonexistent.
