  1. TriPcides: A Dual-Action Response to Resistant Staph

    New TriPcide molecules kill MRSA superbugs and stop them from damaging tissue. This offers hope for fighting antibiotic resistance. Affects patients with staph infections.

  13. India Fights Harder Against Superbugs

    India is working hard to fight superbugs, which are germs that don't die with normal medicine. This is a serious health issue. The country is using a plan called 'One Health' to help protect people, animals, and the environment. New medicines are also being made to help.

  14. 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.”

  19. #safely eradicate #parasites via #gene-drive
    #medical : lice, scabies : #gene_drive
    #lice (body, pubic, head) & #mites (' #scabies ') and #bedbugs have no #natural_predators , it would be fantastically amazing to have a #genedrive to #eradicate the sometimes-lethal insects. Last year, it was widely reported, one on the east coast had died -- was literally eaten alive by a parasite colony in jail. No treatment had been granted, despite repeat complaints. More recently, prisoners in #ice jails, families & children in #Gaza , and held in #Israeli #prisons have reported being deliberately #infected with scabies and lice, suffering horribly. Also #RX #treatment_resistance - much like #antibiotic_resistance w #superbugs - to conventional RX (#antiparasitics ) has skyrocketed: in late 1990s, efficacy was ~97% in USA. But a decade ago by 2016, dropped to ~35%. Today, the identical treatment is prescribed as 30 years ago. Finally, said #drugs = #neurotoxin #nerve_damage . A #genedrive could fix all of that. What is it? A gene edit which makes 100% of all offspring male: no females = inability to #reproduce and it perpetuates every generation so an edited male reproduces w nonedited female and all eggs become male, also carrying the gene-edit.... And eventually the colony depopulates entirely. A very fast & effective cure ..... versus.... a months-long hopeless battle dousing one's body in vinegar, daily, plus numerous other toxins & nerve damage.
