Untreatable MRSa Looming?

Link: Today Tonight on Seven.

    Microbiologist professor Graeme Nimmo has just finished a study of drug-resistant super bacteria or "superbugs". He found that the bacteria were spreading further a field and they were also getting tougher. Nimmo said the superbugs were now not just resistant to one type of antibiotics, they were becoming bullet proof to a variety of drugs. Doctors said all it took to contract a superbug was an open wound and some contaminated soil. Some experts believed it was only a matter of time before superbugs could not be destroyed by any medicines at our disposal.
