Will New Antibiotic Discovery Address Resistance?

The video discusses the urgent need for new antibiotics due to the overuse of existing ones, leading to resistance. It highlights a novel discovery method that has identified potential new antibiotics, though challenges remain in developing them into effective drugs. The experimental drug discussed has shown promise in mice but requires further testing in humans. It is effective against certain infections but not others, and it may take years before it becomes available.

Explain the potential impact of antibiotic resistance on public health.

What are the limitations of the new antibiotic that has been tested in mice?
