With the emergence of super bugs and resistant bacteria, what is the government’s and healthcare industry plan to address this?
I heard Pfizer was the only company still R & D for antibiotics but pulled out due to it not being profitable.
It’s concerning because aren’t the cases of armored resistant bacteria immune to antibiotics spiking?
I dont understand this data at all, mostly cause I hate looking at the scale but also because I assumed Fleming discovered the first antibiotic in 28 so the previous 4 confused me further

[OC] I created this visualization with ggplot2 and Adobe Illustrator, using data compiled by [Hutchings et al. (2019)](https://doi.org/10.1016/j.mib.2019.10.008).
It’s part of an article I wrote called: [What was the Golden Age of Antibiotics, and how can we spark a new one?](https://ourworldindata.org/golden-age-antibiotics)
Almost nothing in the 1970s
