An antibiotic which does not become less effective may have been discovered.
The new antibiotic is called Teixobactin, and is effective against MRSA.
It is still early days. Trials have not yet begun.
At the moment, it shows no problems with bacterial resistance.
The last such discovery was Vancomycin, which did not suffer from resistance problems for 30 years.
