Antimicrobial Drug Resistance: "Prediction Is Very Difficult, Especially about the Future"1 ... Over the last 60 years, bacteria and, in particular, those pathogenic for humans have evolved toward antimicrobial drug resistance. This evolution has 2 key steps: emergence and dissemination of resistance.
