How bacteria communicate in groups to avoid antibiotics. Researchers have found that a bacterium that causes pneumonia, sepsis and other infections, communicates distress signals within a group of bacteria in response to certain antibiotics. Source 6f.

Multi-drug resistant infections rising in children. Antibiotic-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii infections, one of the most common hospital-acquired infections in children across the United States, are on the rise. Source 3u.

That's because doctors are trying to cure every sickness with a pill or injection rather than recommend the cure for the root of the problem: stop eating the junk, gets some fresh fruits, veggies and whole grains as the main part of your diet together with lots of exercise. Put down the phones and the game controls and get your body moving.

Planetary boundaries for antibiotic and pesticide resistance identified. Researchers have now published the first estimates of antibiotic and pesticide 'planetary boundaries.' The researchers suggest that if resistance to antibiotics and pesticides goes beyond these boundaries, societies risk large-scale health and agricultural crises. The results indicate one group of bacteria has passed a boundary. Source 6c.

Bacteria found in ancient Irish soil halts growth of superbugs: New hope for tackling antibiotic resistance. Researchers analyzing soil from Ireland long thought to have medicinal properties have discovered that it contains a previously unknown strain of bacteria which is effective against four of the top six superbugs that are resistant to antibiotics, including MRSA. Antibiotic-resistant superbugs could kill up to 1.3 million people in Europe by 2050, according to recent research. The World Health Organisation (WHO) describes the problem as 'one of the biggest threats to global health, food security, and development today.' Source 3z.

Antibiotic resistance is spreading from wastewater treatment plants. The products of wastewater treatment have been found to contain trace amounts of antibiotic resistant DNA. Researchers have found that even low concentrations of just a single type of antibiotic in the water supply leads to resistance to multiple classes of antibiotics. Source 1e.

Bacteria partners with virus to cause chronic wounds. A common bacterial pathogen called Pseudomonas aeruginosa produces a virus that substantially increases the pathogen's ability to infect us, according to a new study. Source 5x.

Deadly 'superbugs' destroyed by molecular drills. Motorized molecules activated by light target and drill through highly antibiotic resistant bacteria and kill them within minutes. The molecules can open bacteria to attack by drugs they previously resisted. The strategy could be applied to bacterial infections or diseases on the skin, in the lungs or in the gastrointestinal tract. Source 9o.
