Antibiotic apocalypse is bigger threat than global warming, British health chief says

Now, a top health official in England is warning that the threat of antibiotic resistance poses a public health crisis that is comparable to the threat of global warming, BBC News reported.

Professor Dame Sally Davies, the chief medical officer of England, says that bacteria are rapidly adapting to evade the drugs, the National Post reported."It is clear that we might not ever see global warming, the apocalyptic scenario is that when I need a new hip in 20 years I'll die from a routine infection because we've run out of antibiotics," she announced.
