The world’s most frightening infections aren’t carried by plague-infested rats, rabid dogs, or chimps with Ebola. They’re transmitted by “superbugs” — disease-causing bacteria that can’t be killed by antibiotics.
This year, superbugs will kill about 700,000 people, including 23,000 Americans. That toll will increase exponentially in the coming years as ever-evolving bacteria develop resistance to more and more antibiotics. Even hand sanitizers are struggling against certain microbes. By 2050, superbugs could kill 10 million people annually.
