Well here we go. An obituary- On the Death of antibiotics! http://www.japi.org/march_2010/article_01.html (Association of Physicians of India) "Indian medical community has to be ashamed of the NDM-1 (“New Delhi Metallo-1”) gene. Even though we have not contributed to carbopenem development, we have contributed a resistance gene with a glamorous name. The overuse of antibiotics is embedded in our Indian gene. It is an Indian tradition. Why should we Indians worry? We can always depend on honey, yoghurt and cow’s urine. At any rate within a few years,- these products may be more useful than antibiotics!"
