I landed in Glasgow, Scotland last week seeking some much-needed rest and relaxation. Instead, I was welcomed with blaring headlines in the local press: “Antibiotic-resistant superbugs 'will kill 90,000 Britons by 2050'.” Proof, again, that when it comes to risks from infectious diseases, that there is no such thing as rest—particularly for those who face these threats head on and work to protect society from them.
