The biggest cause of the problem was not necessarily the doctors dishing out antibiotics it was the patients not taking the full course.

How many times have people been given a course pills, only for them to say to themselves, I feel better now, and then stop taking the rest of the pills.

By doing that we have effectively been immunising the bacteria against the antibiotic.

But I have faith that a brand new, expensive, antibiotic will be developed just in the nick of time.
