We are fighting antibiotic resistant bacteria with other antibiotics (reserve antibiotics) that are only used against bacteria when other “normal” antibiotics fail.

If we at one point will have antibiotic resistant bacteria that’s also resistant against all these, then we’re fucked and better put a huge amount of money into finding a bunch of new antibiotics as soon as possible, otherwise more and more people will be dying from illnessess that are perfectly treatable today.
