So... not only can some bacteria develop this immunity, they can transfer it to other bacteria? (kinda like a torrent isn't it?) That's so cool (albeit very dangerous for us).
Though if you look at it this way: Bacteria have been researching on vaccines against anti-biotics in their built-in genetic labs. And when a group of them finally had a break through, they started distributing it pretty fast!
Looks like they're doing a better job of research and knowledge dissemination than us... Still think it's ok for journals to hinder sharing of knowledge by taxing it and thus increasing the cost of research??
