Deaths linked to #antibioticresistant #superbugs rose 17% in #England in #2024
Nearly 400 new cases of #antibiotic-resistant #infections a week last year
“Antibiotic resistance is one of the greatest health threats we face,” said the UKHSA’s chief, Susan Hopkins. “More people than ever are acquiring infections that cannot be effectively treated by antibiotics. This puts them at greater risk of serious illness and even death, with our poorest communities hit the hardest.”

#COVIDvaccine technology adapted to develop first #mRNA defense against #antibioticresistant #bacteria
#Vaccine developed by team is an mRNA-based vaccine delivered via lipid nanoparticles, similar to #COVID19vaccine. However, mRNA vaccines are typically effective against #viruses — not bacteria like the plague... In 2023, researchers developed a unique method for producing the bacterial protein within a human cell in a way that prompts #immunesystem to defend against it.

#Urban #birds are teeming with #antibioticresistant #bacteria
Exposure to bacteria in #landfill sites and polluted rivers may explain prevalence among city-dwelling birds
According to data for 2019, about 4.95M deaths globally were associated with bacterial AMR, including 1.27M directly caused by such resistance.
Researchers say species of wild birds that tend to turn up in urban settings are reservoirs for bacteria with the hallmarks of resistance to a host of #drugs.

Infections Spreading in US Hospitals Are on The Rise. Here's Why.

This is kind of a no-brainer for those of who've spent time in doctors' and hospital waiting rooms with some people hacking, coughing, sneezing, what-have-you, and if you have babies and children, good luck. At least wear a mask and hope for the best.

RT by @MartinHaeusling: These are #AntibioticResistant strains of Salmonella likely linked to the high use of antibiotics in cattle production both in the U.S. and Mexico. Other outbreaks of Salmonella Newport have found #farmworkers to be at high risk for infection.

That the spread of is reaching new heights is really disconcerting.
That investment in new drugs is low, maybe even more so.

But there is hope on the horizon from countries in the former , in particular : therapy has been there for decades.

We can use #sewage to track the rise of #antibioticresistant #bacteria
#Wastewater #surveillance helped us track #covid. Now we can use it to tackle the "silent #pandemic."
