House Dust Can Help Bacteria Spread Their Antibiotic Resistance Genes

NewsEditor

Get your dustpans at the ready. Researchers have shown that bacteria can hitch a ride on a fleck of house dust and pass on their antibiotic resistance genes to others.

NewsEditor

But after moving to NYC for five years and hitting the age of marriage, I put my biases aside and saw Fort Lauderdale for what it was—an incredibly affordable warm weather bachelorette destination. At first, I couldn’t see why someone would pick Fort Lauderdale over Miami, but after vacationing in Miami, I immediately figured out why.

The problem is, even after you sense their true colors, after you get exposed to their worst sides, after you realize what they’re capable of doing to you, no one else’s opinion of them has changed. You’re the only enlightened one. You’re the only one who was there to witness the way they behaved. You’re the only one who has evidence they aren’t as sweet as they…
