They keep us alive during and after birth, when we face sudden infections, need common surgeries, or need to manage long-term challenges like diabetes and cancer.
Now diseases caused by superbugs that defeat antibiotics are on the rise – and there are no longer any cures. Imagine a world where a simple cut can be lethal and going to the hospital is a death sentence.
This hidden pandemic of superbugs is one of the deadliest to hit our world. Unchecked, it will cause greater economic damage and kill more people than COVID-19.
In this gripping and eye-opening book, microbiologist Anirban Mahapatra explains what led to this hidden pandemic, what’s at stake, and what we can do in this war against our deadly invisible enemies.  aMedicine and Health919952  aPublic Measures to prevent disease919953  2ddccB  00102ddc4070aLBSNAAbLBSNAAd2026-05-30g599.00l0o614.4 MAHp186080r2026-05-30w2026-05-30yBA  c361212d361212
