As a consequence, public confidence in the health service has suffered. An antibiotic-resistant the strain of bacteria was first identified in the 1950s. It was a staphylococcus common in abscesses and bloodstream infections and it had become resistant to the antibiotic penicillin.

Since then the bacteria have become resistant to a second antibiotic and have become established as a source of infection in many nursing homes and hospitals. Today it is believed to cause about 1,000 deaths each year as a result of hospital-acquired infections. Action that can beat this ‘superbug’ is simple but expensive.
