What is antibiotic resistance?
Antibiotic resistance occurs when bacteria develops mechanisms to reduce the effects of the antibiotic. These mechanisms evolve through mutation and adaptation. Mutations can be good or bad for bacteria. In some cases, the mutation kills the bacteria and it may provide the bacteria with a survival advantage. The survival advantage may include resistance to antibiotics. In the presence of antibiotics, this resistance becomes an advantage and the resistant strain becomes dominant.

With more bonfires being built, this increases the chance of our gorgeous little hedgehogs being injured or, unfortunately, dying. Having been a nurse at St. Anne’s for over 18 years, this is something I’ve seen far too frequently.
