Super Bug

Antibiotics have come a long way since the first antibiotic (Penicillin) was discovered. Penicillin curred many disease crippling bacteria, but over time bacteria was able to mutate and become antibiotic resistant. Even though recent technology and new studies have advanced our antibiotics , bacteria still manage to survive and continue to become antibiotic resistant and that is why they are known as "The Super Bug".
