  2. Researchers seeking alternative means to foil antibiotic-resistant bacteria have found that a fatty acid found in ginger and turmeric reduces the ability of *Staphylococcus aureus* to adhere to mammalian tissue, limiting its ability to spread, but not killing it and so, perhaps, not inducing an adaptive response.

  3. @fabio Also due to these regulations I cannot buy antibiotic ointment when the Czech regime is depriving me of healthcare when I have an infected eczema and am afraid it will produce sepsis and I die, because antibiotic ointment ran out and when I call a dermatologist and tell I need it urgently she gives me an appointment 4 months (!!!) in the future!

    In a corrupt developing 3rd world dictatorship Cambodia it is possible to buy antibiotic ointments without prescription and also dermatologist wait there is only 7-10 days, not 4 months.

  5. #Epidemiological characterization of #human #infection with #H5N6 avian #influenza

    Source: Frontiers in Public Health, Abstract Background: In recent years, there have been frequent reports of human infection with H5N6 avian influenza. However, the fundamental characteristics of the disease remain unclear. This paper conducts a systematic review to explore the epidemiological features of the disease, aiming to provide a foundation for epidemic prevention and control…

  6. First Report of #Sphaerirostris picae #Infection in the Oriental #Magpie (#Pica serica) in #Beijing, #China, Vector Borne Zoo Dis.: liebertpub.com/doi/abs/10.1089

    The findings highlight potential health #hazards posed by Sphaerirostris picae to urban avian populations & public #health. Study suggests that additional research & surveillance efforts are necessary to better understand #risks associated with this #parasite & to develop effective mitigation strategies.

  12. 1rst lab-confirmed #human case of #infection with #influenza #H5N2 virus reported in #Mexico, MedRxIV: medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/20

    We detected a non-subtypeable flu virus in a hospitalized patient, resident of Metro area of Mexico City. Our results using 5 complete viral segments M, NS, NA, NP & HA, showed identity of 99% with avian flu H5N2 from Texcoco, Mexico of '24. ..., relationship with severity remain unknow.

  14. Avian #Influenza A(#H5N2) - #Mexico,
    14 June 2024: WHO {re-posted after yesterday withdrawal}: who.int/emergencies/disease-ou

    Upon #review of the #patient’s clinical history and records, the national multidisciplinary team concluded on 6 June that, although the patient had a laboratory-confirmed #infection with avian influenza A(H5N2) virus, he died due to #complications of his co-morbidities.

  15. Concurrent #Infection with Clade 2.3.4.4b Highly Pathogenic Avian #Influenza #H5N6 and #H5N1 Viruses, South #Korea, 2023, Emerg Infect Dis.: wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/30/6

    HPAI H5N6 & H5N1 viruses of clade 2.3.4.4b were simultaneously introduced into South Korea at end of 2023. An outbreak at a broiler duck farm consisted of concurrent infection by both viruses. Sharing genetic information and international surveillance of such viruses in wild birds and poultry is critical.
