For many years, the first course of treatment for illness was antibiotics. Health providers would use these drugs regardless of being able to diagnose illnesses as bacterial, viral, or something altogether different. Over time, the overuse of antibiotics led to bacteria that accrued mutations leading to resistance. Eventually more pathogenic bacteria arose with the same resistance, and standard antibiotic treatment no longer worked.
