Drug-Resistant Pneumonia



Deaths from pneumonia plunged when antibiotics first came on the scene. But the germs that cause the lung infection are evolving, creating new strains that don't respond to conventional drugs. In this program, we tour a lab where super-bacteria are identified. We also learn what's being done to fight drug-resistant pneumonia, and why serious cases can put doctors in a race against time.
