We’re hearing there is a #Shigella outbreak in the Beltline #yyc.

Why hasn’t there been any public messaging about this?

How do intracellular #bacteria breach vacuoles to enter the host cytosol? @enningal &co show that #Shigella uses its T3SS system to damage endomembranes via mechanoporation to initiate cytosolic access @PLOSBiology https://plos.io/4jXrr9Z

Raw cucumber and carrot salad with raw milk in your salad dressing seems like quite the appropriate thing to put on a menu for the celebration of incoming CDC/FDA officials. #salmonella #shigella #birdflu #salad

Understanding Shigella: Causes, Symptoms, and Prevention

"Anyone with symptoms has been encouraged to stay hydrated and practise good hand hygiene.", says Doc.
That'll keep the lid on it.👍 .

#Shigella -Infektionen sind weltweit die zweithäufigste Ursache tödlicher Durchfallerkrankungen. Martin Thanbichler &Team @mpi_marburg fanden einen Schalter, der die Infektion steuert - ein potenzieller neuer Forschungsansatz für zukünftige Therapeutika.

The article that piqued my interest: https://www.msn.com/en-us/health/other/contagious-shigella-infection-spreads-through-portland-area-renewing-health-warnings/ar-AA1m7YiR?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=17d6cc603c7840f5854562fa95bdbe5d&ei=60

I see in the news an article about a #Shigella breakout. Being curious and having never heard of Shigella, I searched #Bing. Before clicking on any links, I see in the corner this excerpt from #Wikipedia noting, "...is genetically closely related to #Escherichia and #Antisemitism." Wait, what? Antisemitism is now a bacterial infection? I think not. The Wikipedia article does NOT say this, so the Bing result is #weird.

''Since the first case was reported on 28 June 2023, and as of 29 August 2023, a total of 2,389 suspected cases have been reported, including 52 deaths (overall Case Fatality Rate (#CFR) 2.2%). Laboratory analyses performed by the National Public Health Laboratory, identified 83 cases of #Shigella, 22 of #Salmonella Typhi (S. Typhi) and 21 cases of #Vibrio cholerae with toxigenicity testing of the strain not performed.''

Nice papers that #neutrophils can also be epigenetically reprogrammed by infection - stemming from effects on stem cells.

Both use #zebrafish as model

CDC warns about the rise in almost untreatable #Shigella bacterial infections.
https://www.nbcnews.com/health/health-news/drug-resistant-stomach-bug-cdc-warns-shigella-outbreak-rcna72784

CDC warns of increase in extensively drug-resistant shigellosis, a serious gut bacteria. Additionally, shigella can spread this resistance to other gut bacteria.

Many of the recent shigella outbreaks have occurred among the unhoused population and among Men who have Sex with Men (MSM).
