Looking and feeling human again. ❤️ After two weeks of healing out my tonsils without any Antibiotics i feel good and stabile for the first time today. I celebrated by dying my hair and painting my face. 👋😅 It's a good feeling to know that my body can handle a sickness without any help. Just sleep and rest. This experience makes me more self conscious and i like that. #healing #health #antibiotics #antibioticsresistance #selfcare #antibiotika #gesundheit #mandelentzündung #lymphknoten #selfie #gaygirl #grayhair #greyhair #graypixie #girlswithshorthair #tattoedpeople #tattoedskin #tattoedwomen #witches #selbstheilungskräfte (hier: Hamburg, Germany) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDQ5ocfnDNi/?igshid=xtxkrjkjr7oa

This 'thing' is not over. But we are not afraid. We are informed and we recognize the nature in all things. #guerreras #solderas #peaceofmind #antibioticsresistance https://www.instagram.com/p/CA0agMqg4mD/?igshid=1n0kk845b90hm

It's World Antibiotic Awareness Week. Always seek the advice of a qualified healthcare professional before taking antibiotics. Help us stop the spread of antibiotic resistance 💊 . . . Mari kita kampanyekan peduli penggunaan antibiotik sebagai salah satu wadah untuk meningkatkan kesadaran dan kepedulian masyarakat mengenai ancaman resistensi antimikroba. . . . #antibiotik #worldantibioticawareness #antibioticsresistance #apoteker #farmasis #resistensiantibiotik

Because every exhibition needs signs. On arrival at the museum, participates can get a map and download the app onto their phones over the free wi-fi. It’s up to the users if they want to do the exhibition first or collect the Sporiees first. The exhibition would include information about different types of illnesses and what can be done to prevent them. 

 There will be age-appropriate activities for families to partake in, such as growing you own germs in a petri dish and hanging it up on the wall. Families can then come back later and see how much their “bugs” have grown over time. Interactive mini-games on touch screens for the children to play on with help from their adults. Activities such as painting your own bug colony, or design your own bacteria/antibiotic.

We’ll never realize how serious it is until a patient with this kind of infection comes in. Looks like we’re losing the battle against this one. 😞

From the Animals' Rights Congress (Bogotá, Colombia)

80% of the world's antibiotics are used on healthy animals to make them grow.

This increases the resistance of people who consume these animals to antibiotics.

El 80% de los antibióticos del mundo se usan en animales de engorde sanos para que crezcan.

Esto aumenta la resistencia de las personas que consumen estos animales a los antibióticos.

Tens of Thousands Worldwide Die of Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria

MedicalResearch.com Interview with:

Dr Alessandro Cassini MD Epidemiologist, European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control Solna, Sweden MedicalResearch.com: What is the background for this study? Response: We published an ECDC study estimating attributable deaths and disability-adjusted life-years caused by infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the European Union and the European Economic Area (EU/EEA). This study is based on 2015 data from the European Antimicrobial Resistance Surveillance Network (EARS-Net). The study was developed by experts at ECDC and the Burden of AMR Collaborative Group, and published in The Lancet Infectious Diseases. MedicalResearch.com: What are the main findings? Response: Our study estimated that each year, 33000 people die as a direct consequence of an infection due to bacteria resistant to antibiotics. This represents a burden comparable to that of influenza, tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS combined. We also found that 75% of the burden of bacteria resistant to antibiotics in Europe is due to healthcare-associated infections and 39% of the burden is caused by infections with bacteria resistant to last-line antibiotics such as carbapenems and colistin (generally in hospitals). This could be minimised through adequate infection prevention and control measures, as well as antibiotic stewardship in healthcare settings. The burden of all studied infections with bacteria resistant to antibiotics increased between 2007 and 2015. The number of deaths attributable to infections with Klebsiella pneumoniae resistant to carbapenems – a group of last-line antibiotics – increased six-fold. This is a worrisome trend because these bacteria can spread easily in healthcare settings if adequate infection prevention and control measures are not in place. On the other hand, the number of deaths attributable to infections with third-generation cephalosporin-resistant Escherichia coli, that are mostly community-associated, increased four-fold. Moreover, these infections were responsible for the highest burden in 2015 indicating that antimicrobial stewardship targeting primary care prescribers as well as infection prevention and control interventions in primary care are necessary to reduce the burden of these infections.  MedicalResearch.com: What should readers take away from your report? Response: The estimated burden of infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the EU and EEA is substantial compared with that of other infectious diseases, and has increased since 2007. Strategies to prevent and control antibiotic-resistant bacteria require coordination at EU and EEA and global level. However, our study showed that the contribution of various antibiotic-resistant bacteria to the overall burden varies greatly between countries, thus highlighting the need for prevention and control strategies that are tailored to the needs of each country in the EU and EEA. Our study also showed that most of the burden of infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the EU and EEA was healthcare-associated, thus emphasising the need to urgently address antimicrobial resistance as a patient safety issue and the need for alternative treatment options for patients with such infections who have comorbidities or are otherwise vulnerable (e.g., because of their poor immune system or age).  MedicalResearch.com: What recommendations do you have for future research as a result of this work? Response: Future studies should include estimates of the burden of infections due to other antibiotic-resistant bacteria of public health importance, such as multidrug-resistant (MDR) and extensively drug-resistant (XDR) Mycobacterium tuberculosis, drug-resistant Salmonella spp., and drug-resistant Neisseria gonorrhoeae, to give a more comprehensive estimate of the burden of antimicrobial resistance. In the long term, research should be done to better understand the factors underlying the estimations of EARS-Net country coverage, such as catchment population, patient case-mix, laboratory capacity, and the appropriateness and frequency of collection of blood cultures in each country, thus providing data for even better models and estimates.  No disclosures  Citation: Alessandro Cassini, Liselotte Diaz Högberg, Diamantis Plachouras, Annalisa Quattrocchi, Ana Hoxha, Gunnar Skov Simonsen, Mélanie Colomb-Cotinat, Mirjam E Kretzschmar, Brecht Devleesschauwer, Michele Cecchini, Driss Ait Ouakrim, Tiago Cravo Oliveira, Marc J Struelens, Carl Suetens, Dominique L Monnet, Reinhild Strauss, Karl Mertens, Thomas Struyf, Boudewijn Catry, Katrien Latour, Ivan N Ivanov, Elina G Dobreva, Arjana Tambic Andraševic, Silvija Soprek, Ana Budimir, Niki Paphitou, Helena Žemlicková, Stefan Schytte Olsen, Ute Wolff Sönksen, Pille Märtin, Marina Ivanova, Outi Lyytikäinen, Jari Jalava, Bruno Coignard, Tim Eckmanns, Muna Abu Sin, Sebastian Haller, George L Daikos, Achilleas Gikas, Sotirios Tsiodras, Flora Kontopidou, Ákos Tóth, Ágnes Hajdu, Ólafur Guólaugsson, Karl G Kristinsson, Stephen Murchan, Karen Burns, Patrizio Pezzotti, Carlo Gagliotti, Uga Dumpis, Agne Liuimiene, Monique Perrin, Michael A Borg, Sabine C de Greeff, Jos CM Monen, Mayke BG Koek, Petter Elstrøm, Dorota Zabicka, Aleksander Deptula, Waleria Hryniewicz, Manuela Caniça, Paulo Jorge Nogueira, Paulo André Fernandes, Vera Manageiro, Gabriel A Popescu, Roxana I Serban, Eva Schréterová, Slavka Litvová, Mária Štefkovicová, Jana Kolman, Irena Klavs, Aleš Korošec, Belén Aracil, Angel Asensio, María Pérez-Vázquez, Hanna Billström, Sofie Larsson, Jacqui S Reilly, Alan Johnson, Susan Hopkins. Attributable deaths and disability-adjusted life-years caused by infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the EU and the European Economic Area in 2015: a population-level modelling analysis. The Lancet Infectious Diseases, 2018; DOI: 10.1016/S1473-3099(18)30605-4 The information on MedicalResearch.com is provided for educational purposes only, and is in no way intended to diagnose, cure, or treat any medical or other condition.
