It's NOT war, terrorist, credit crunch or the global warming that threaten our existence, but microscopic creatures that live almost everywhere on the planet. They are immune to most antibiotic, antiseptic and are colonised in rivers, soil and sewers. They are spreading all over the world with alarming rate. Infectious disease is now the second leading cause of death worldwide. These bacteria swap genes without going through the stages of reproduction and infect patients with Swine flu. They infect and kill young healthy adults and children in seventy two hours. Understanding how they spread and why this happened will help you save your family, friends and yourself.
