New virus discovered that can kill drug-resistant superbugs

Australian scientists have discovered a new virus that can destroy drug-resistant super bacteria, opening a new direction in the fight against antibiotic resistance.

Scientists from Monash University, Australia, have just published an important study on the discovery of a new type of virus that can kill drug-resistant super bacteria. This discovery opens up new prospects in preventing antibiotic resistance - a problem that is becoming increasingly serious worldwide.

Scientists have found two previously unknown strains of a bacteria-eating virus in a waterway in Melbourne's northern suburbs. When created in the lab, the strains have demonstrated varying degrees of killing antibiotic-resistant superbugs commonly found in hospitals. The team hopes the findings will lead to more naturally occurring strains of the virus that have the potential to kill superbugs.
