    "The results show that hospital strains, already resistant to several antibiotics, also tolerate high concentrations of glyphosate. About 74% of them are resistant to carbapenems, a class of powerful antibiotics used as a last resort. All hospital strains show a high tolerance to glyphosate, which worries researchers: if these bacteria reach wastewater, they could proliferate in treated agricultural areas."

  7. A bacteria strain that evades antibiotics is spreading in Europe.

    MRSA is a type of bacteria that has evolved to the point where first-choice antibiotics no longer work against it, making it harder to treat.

    The strain was first identified nearly a decade ago in the Netherlands and Germany, and has since spread to at least nine other European countries, according to Danish research.
