CDC finds ‘nightmare bacteria’ prevalent in US
(Worthy News) – Hundreds of cases of “nightmare bacteria” have been found in the U.S., the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday.

The agency said the report, which details new data gathered from state and local health departments, underscores the need for greater identification of the bacteria.
