Antibiotic resistant bacteria, also known as "superbugs". This develops when an antibiotic fails to kill all of the bacteria it targets. When this occurs the surviving bacteria become resistant to that particular drug.

What is superbug?

a superbug is a micro-organism that is resistant to most anti-biotics. the superbugs in recent history are imune to all anti-biotics,except one. it is the gene of the3 superbug that is resistant to the antibiotics. a tiny change in one gene or a mutation can turn a bacterial cell into a superbug. one single superbug on its own will not do much damage but if it reproduces rapidly then it could produce a large population of bacteria which are all resistant to antibiotics. superbugs can have an increased risk of being resistant to antibiotics when: A) people take antibiotics they do not really need B) people do not finish their full course of antibiotics
