Description
Antibiotic development may finally be picking up pace, with 11 new drugs approved in the past decade, four in 2014 alone, with the help of new legislation. But in this first installment of a series on antibiotics, Peter Doshi asks why authorities are approving drugs with little evidence they do anything to tackle the problem of antimicrobial resistance.
