  1. Poor antibiotic stewardship blamed as India found to be superbug’s birthplace. Now, new research shows another highly drug resistant pathogen that has gone global most likely originated on the Indian subcontinent too. Sequencing of 340 samples of the multi-drug resistant Staphylococcus aureus strain, known as the Bengal Bay clone, has traced its origins to the Indian subcontinent in the 1960s.1 The samples were collected over 10–15 years from 14 countries, including India and Bangladesh. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is principally a threat to hospital patients and the immunocompromised and can often lead to deadly conditions such as sepsis. MRSA claimed nearly 20,000 lives in the US in 2017 alone.
