Der er en risiko for, at vi, hvis vi ikke - og vi burde have bremset op for 20 år siden, det er altså allerede sent, måske tilmed for sent - radikalt og hurtigt kan reducere antallet af infektioner og antibiotikakure, så er vi snart tilbage på oldemors tid, hvor næsten alle kvinder måtte føde fire børn, for at to af dem kunne overleve til voksenalderen.
We should have put the brakes on twenty years ago, so it is already late and perhaps even too late, but there is a danger that, if we cannot radically and quickly reduce the number of infections and antibiotic treatments, we shall soon be back to where we were in our great-grandmothers' time when almost every woman had to give birth to four children if two were to reach adulthood.
