Rip currents account for 80% of beach rescues, and can be dangerous or deadly if swimmers don't know what to do. Before heading to the beach, one should check local beach forecasts and always swim near lifeguards. Beachgoers should also look for any warning signs or flags.

In 1928, a physician named Alexander Fleming observed that a mold in one of his Petri dishes was killing the bacteria he was trying to grow. This strain of mold led to one of the most significant medical discoveries in history: the antibiotic penicillin. Antibiotics soon became lifesavers. However, even back then, Fleming knew that bacteria could become resistant to penicillin. This video describes how widespread use of antibiotics in medicine, agriculture, and household products can lead to the evolution of microbes that are resistant to multiple antibiotics. Part of the "I Contain Multitudes" series.
