Drug-resistant 'superbugs' thrived long before di**saurs roamed the Earth

Stealthy "superbugs" that cause dangerous infections are one of the world's biggest public health concerns. Yet these antibiotic-resistant microbes, which are spreading fast in hospitals, aren't a new phe**me**n.
Today's "enterococci" superbugs likely arose from ancestors dating back 450 million years ago, according to a new study (http://www.cell.com/cell/fulltext/S0092-8674(17)30478-6?_returnURL=http%3A%2F%2Flinkinghub.elsevier.com% 2Fretrieve%2Fpii%2FS0092867417304786%3Fshowall%3Dt rue) in the journal Cell. That's around the time animals first emerged from the ocean and began crawling on land, and it's well before the age of di**saurs.
Scientists said that studying the evolutionary history of these virulent microbes could lead to better tools for fighting antibiotic resistance in the modern era.* Read more...
