new strain of "superbug" is causing alarm after it was found in the water supplies of New Delhi. Out of 171 samples taken from water pools and 50 samples of tap water supplies in and around Connaught Place, a hub for business, and the Red Fort areas, the New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase 1 (NDM-1) producing bacteria were found in 51 of the pools, and 2 of the taps. While the frequency with which it was found is troubling, more so is the fact that the bacteria carrying NDM-1 are resistant to almost all antibiotics.
