Here's something that comes as no surprise to beekeepers... totally drug-resistant TB (TDR TB).  We've been seeing this type of thing the last two decades with honeybees.  Old pests and diseases, followed by old drugs.  New pests and diseases, followed by new, more expensive drugs.  Followed by totally drug-resistant pests and diseases.  And the cycle of life continues.

"A strain of tuberculosis that is resistant to all existing TB drugs has emerged in Mumbai, India."
