  6. 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.”

  7. Powerful new #antibiotic that can kill #superbugs discovered in #soil #bacteria
    Surprise discovery could pave the way for new treatments against #drugresistant #infections.
    They discovered an intermediate compound — called premethylenomycin C lactone — whose #antimicrobial activity was 100 times stronger than that of the final product. Tiny doses killed strains of bacteria known to cause hard-to-treat infections.

  8. 2019: #Gut #microbiota and #neurological effects of #glyphosate

    Abstract: "There are currently various concerns regarding certain environmental toxins and the possible impact they can have on developmental diseases. Glyphosate (Gly) is the most utilised herbicide in agriculture, although its widespread use is generating controversy in the scientific world because of its probable #carcinogenic effect on human cells. Gly performs as an inhibitor of 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phospate synthase (EPSP synthase), not only in plants, but also in bacteria. An inhibiting effect on EPSP synthase from intestinal microbiota has been reported, affecting mainly beneficial bacteria. To the contrary, Clostridium spp. and Salmonella strains are shown to be resistant to Gly. Consequently, researchers have suggested that Gly can cause dysbiosis, a phenomenon which is characterised by an imbalance between beneficial and pathogenic microorganisms. The overgrowth of bacteria such as #clostridia generates high levels of noxious metabolites in the #brain, which can contribute to the development of neurological deviations. This work reviews the impact of Glyphosate-induced #intestinal dysbiosis on the central nervous system, focusing on emotional, #neurological and #neurodegenerative disorders. A wide variety of factors were investigated in relation to brain-related changes, including highlighting #genetic abnormalities, #pregnancy-associated problems, #diet, #infections, vaccines and heavy metals. However, more studies are required to determine the implication of the most internationally used #herbicide, Gly, in behavioural disorders."

  9. Deadly #drugresistant #yeast gained ground, more drug resistance amid #COVID
    #CandidaAuris has been considered an "urgent threat"—the #CDC's highest level of concern—since it was first reported in the US in 2016. The yeast lurks in #healthcare settings and preys upon vulnerable patients, causing invasive #infections with a fatality rate of between 30-60%.
