Entire hospital ICU in China gets completely overtaken by antibiotic-resistant superbugs, putting patients at serious risk

May 11, 2023 -

British researchers recently reported on a hospital in Hangzhou, China, that became completely overrun with a particularly virulent antibiotic-resistant "superbug" that ended up infecting one in three patients.

Known as carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii, or CRAB, the superbug in question found its way into the hospital's intensive care unit (ICU). From there, it spread through HVAC ventilation ducts, plumbing, and shared equipment, infecting both patients and ...

UN report warns that SUPERBUGS could kill up to 10M people each year by 2050

August 03, 2023 -

The UN Environment Program (UNEP) sounded the alarm about superbugs in a report, adding that antimicrobial resistance – an umbrella term for bacteria, viruses, parasites and fungi that are evolving to evade our medicines – could be responsible for an additional 10 million deaths each year by 2050.

Drug-resistant infections already directly kill millions of people around the world. In the U.S., more than 2.8 million antimicrobial-resistant infections are reported each ...

ALARM as more than 30,000 Europeans die annually from SUPERBUGS triggered by pharmaceutical overuse and abuse

November 29, 2023 -

Researchers estimate that anywhere between 31,000 and 39,000 Europeans succumb to death by superbugs, often due to overdependence on and abuse of pharmaceutical antibiotics, which are a leading cause of superbugs.

Antibiotic overuse both in human and veterinary medicine has caused deadly bacteria to become "smarter," effectively outsmarting even the most advanced antibiotics designed to destroy them.

The hardest-hit countries, according to data compiled by statistician ...

"That resistance out there is actually now one of the leading causes of death in the world," says Dr. Chris Murray, ...

Chlorine dioxide proven to kill hospital superbugs, including MRSA

July 26, 2023 -

George Georgiou, a researcher from the Da Vinci BioSciences Research Centre in Cyprus, set out to determine new methods of fighting MRSA, which kills at least 50,000 people every year in the United States and Europe alone.

More than 10 percent of all bloodstream Staphylococcus aureus infections are caused by MRSA, Georgiou found, while several countries are seeing closer to 50 percent being caused by MRSA – and antibiotic-resistant strains of Staph only continue to rise ...

With the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the whole world experienced the terrifying potential of new diseases to infect many people. The role that environmental changes play in worsening new diseases also became clear.

While research about the links between these factors is still ongoing, findings from recent studies suggest that there ...

Releasing genetically modified mosquitoes creates MUTATIONS that may cause RESISTANT vector-borne diseases

a month ago -

The global operation has projects in 14 countries and claims to have protected 11 million people from vector borne diseases over the past decade. These projects include the release of billions of genetically modified mosquitoes.

To start, the mosquito eggs are injected with Wolbachia bacteria. After they are released, they are counted on to mate with the indigenous population of mosquitoes and eradicate the species that spread diseases like dengue, chikungunya, Zika virus ...

Mark Zuckerberg commissioning secret DOOMSDAY BUNKER in Hawaii, complete with blast-resistant door

December 22, 2023 -

WIRED magazine obtained the bunker's detailed planning documents through a series of public record requests. The documents revealed the existence of the project estimated to cost $270 million at the minimum.

For several years, Zuckerberg has expanded the range of his 1,500-acre Koolau Ranch in Kauai, Hawaii. On the surface, the ranch will have two central mansions connected by a tunnel linked to the underground bunker. However, the documents show that a "5,000-square-foot ...

Antibiotic contamination of U.S. food supply increasing as Big Pharma pushes more drugs for animals

2 months ago -

Believe it or not, most antibiotics sold in the United States are administered to livestock used in the meat industry. And they are typically given to healthy animals for purposes other than treating sickness – this includes for prophylactic and growth promotion purposes.

As of 2020, upwards of 69 percent of the U.S. antibiotic supply is found in meat that people and other animals eat for sustenance. Since the drugs often persist in meat tissue, many people are thus consuming ...

Gays and other “love is love” LGBTs are creating and spreading drug-resistant diseases like SYPHILIS and CHLAMYDIA

The mechanisms of SILVER against deadly bacteria and why it should be in your prepper bag

a month ago -

A May 2015 piece in Science magazine stated that silver interferes with the cell walls of bacteria and deprives them of the normal metabolic processes they need to survive. Silver ions punch holes in bacterial membranes and, once inside, bind to essential components like DNA. This, in turn, prevent bacteria from performing even their most basic functions.

The magazine also referenced an April 2015 study published in Scientific Reports about this phenomenon. It zoomed in on ...
