Improving access to antibiotics will save lives and reduce the rise and spread of drug-resistant infections. Instead of traditional ‘last mile’ global health solutions, global leaders need to support efforts to develop suitable antibiotics and their rational use, ensuring that countries have the capacity to make them available.

This study shows that Citrobacter rodentium alters its growth and virulence in response to varying intestinal pH, and, in turn, the host actively induces stomach acidification.
