Superbug Eats Plastic in Hospitals?!

A superbug that already kills hundreds of thousands yearly just got scarier: it can literally eat medical plastic. Scientists found Pseudomonas aeruginosa survives longer by munching on plastics used in sutures, implants, and even ventilators. This means hospital germs might be hanging out on medical gear way longer than we thought. Plus, the bug gets tougher after its plastic snack, making it harder to treat. Time to rethink how we keep hospitals safe! #Superbug #HealthNews #HospitalSafety #Health
