Who killed Mrs X?
Was it her husband, infecting her with a resistant bacterium? Was it the pharmacist, who sold Mr X the antibiotics? Or was it the system that allowed him to get the antibiotics in the first place?
In this episode we delve into the world of antimicrobial resistance and antibiotics, finding out about the link between the two and how AMR is making our medicines ineffective. Joining us this week are:
