What are superbugs and how can we stop getting infected by them ?

Simply speaking Superbugs are bacteria that have over time acquired immunity over prescribed strong antibiotics. As a matter of fact, antibiotics discovered by Alexander Fleming in 1928 and ever since mankind has used this medical treatment technique to fight infections and cure ourselves. But the old antibiotics have become ineffective over time, meaning microbes in the human body and the environment have acquired resistance against them 


By 2030 almost 10 million people world over would succumb to the Superbug every year. This will turn out to be a worse calamity than cancer.

What concerted effort can global bodies do to stop the scourge of these superbugs ?
