Doctors share image to show we are losing the '10-year challenge' against antibiotic resistance Compared to their 2009 10-year challenge photo, antibiotics don't look so good too good.

Several doctors are trying to harness the power of the #10YearChallenge trend on social media to draw attention to the growing, worldwide public health crisis of antibiotic resistance.

They are re-tweeting side-by-side photos of what appear to be petri dishes full of bacteria with antibiotics sitting in them - one from 2009 and one from 2019.
