My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Health, Senator Ludwig. The Four Corners program last night broadcast what those of us with a health background have known for some years, and that is that the threat to global health posed by superbugs and antibiotic resistance is a severe and urgent threat. In a few short years, minor infections and routine surgery could become life-threatening conditions. What is the government doing to prepare Australia for the worsening problem of resistance and to safeguard the future health of Australians?
