Wastewaters have unique characteristics, allowing resistance genes to start their journey from harmless bacteria to those that cause disease. Microorganisms began producing antibiotic molecules long before we started to use them as medicines. Accordingly, the ability of many environmental bacteria to defend themselves against antibiotics is ancient.
