What should we do in the face of superbugs?

Where do superbugs come from, and how can we prevent and abuse antibiotics from entering our bodies?

01 Wash your hands frequently.

The superbug MRSA can be spread through hand contact, so everyone should pay attention to hygiene and wash their hands frequently.

02 Boosts immunity.

Usually, everyone should exercise more and eat more nutritious food to enhance the body's own resistance and resist bacterial invasion.

03 Use less antibiotics.

The emergence of superbugs is largely due to the misuse of antibiotics by us. Experts**, if we continue to abuse antibiotics like this, one person will die every three seconds by 2050. Therefore, all mankind should unite to fight superbugs.

Doctors should not prescribe antibiotics indiscriminately, and farmers should not indiscriminately give antibiotics to livestock. Only in this way can we slow down the arrival of superbugs.

04 National policy.

Countries should enact policies to restrict the use of antibiotics, especially the trade in veterinary antibiotics.

What are Superbugs? Superbugs are a colloquial term, and more accurately referred to as "multidrug-resistant bacteria", it does not refer to a certain class of bacteria, but to those that are resistant to more than two antibiotics. Superbugs are not meant to be resistant to all antibiotics.

Since the invention of penicillin in 1928, humanity has been helpless in the face of bacterial infections. Due to the huge difference in the structure of human cells and bacterial cells, antibiotics can specifically kill bacteria without damaging human cells, and the application of antibiotics has saved countless lives.

However, in the face of the challenge of antibiotics, bacteria will also "fight back", in the natural evolutionary project, the genes of organisms will mutate, and some bacteria have obtained resistance to antibiotics through mutation. Perhaps at first, these drug-resistant bacteria only accounted for a small part of the total number of bacteria, but because of the use of antibiotics, those non-resistant bacteria are killed, so that the drug-resistant bacteria can survive and continue to multiply, and over time, the bacteria with antibiotic-resistant mutations continue to expand the number of populations in evolution due to their survival advantage, and gradually acquire resistance to a variety of antibiotics, so superbugs are formed.

So what are the ways to deal with superbugs in the future?

Superbugs are caused by the misuse of antibiotics in humans, resulting in bacteria becoming resistant to antibiotics, making the infection uncontrollable when humans are infected. Only by strictly controlling the use of antibiotics and continuously reducing the abuse of antibiotics can we best defeat superbugs, and of course, the development of new antibiotics is also indispensable.

Banning the misuse of antibiotics is a means of doing so, and of course developing more powerful antibiotics, perhaps later directly by injecting artificial viruses to modify specific genes to fight specific superbugs.

For ordinary patients, it should be kept in mind: follow the doctor's instructions, take medication according to symptoms, and do not use drugs indiscriminately. Medical workers should strictly follow the "Guidelines for the Clinical Application of Antimicrobial Drugs" to use drugs, use broad-spectrum drugs with caution, and avoid drug resistance.

In addition, relevant companies should pay full attention to the problem of antibiotic resistance, increase the research and development of new antibiotics from top to bottom, and carry out in-depth research on destroying bacterial resistance genes and enhancing bacterial sensitivity to antibiotics, so as to provide more long-term and reliable support for dealing with "superbugs".

It should be a very subtle bacteria, but this bacterium is very aggressive, and as long as we come into contact with this bacterium, we will be infected. In the future, it should be that we will be given some antibiotics and other medicines, or our body will improve its immunity, so that we can deal with this superbug.

It refers to bacteria that are highly resistant to drugs, and will definitely develop effective drugs that can kill bacteria through these drugs, and will also use genetic engineering to develop new drugs.

Superbugs are a type of antimicrobial resistant bacteria that can have very serious effects on the human body. It can even lead to serious consequences of muscle necrosis. In the future, there is no good countermeasure to deal with superbugs, but I believe that China's scientific research level will develop better and better.

Superbugs are very contagious bacteria that are very harmful to the human body. It can be eliminated by sterilization, by inactivation, by sterilization, or by high temperature.

Superbugs are bacteria that cannot be completely advanced with the current level of medical treatment, and in the future, I think we can use high-tech means such as ultrasound and human genetic engineering to deal with superbugs.

Superbugs, refers to the abuse of antibiotics to make the bacteria more and more resistant, so this kind of bacteria are collectively referred to as superbugs, superbugs also refer to methoxybenzenicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus MRSA, is a kind of bacteria, because it is difficult to kill it with general antibiotics, so it is difficult to diagnose and treat, once infected with this bacteria, it often causes complications such as sepsis and pneumonia, which is life-threatening and quite dangerous for mothers, the elderly and children. By detecting genetic changes, British researchers have mapped out a roadmap for the spread of the "superbug" methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus across continents, using a new generation of genetic testing technology to conduct a complete analysis of the bacterial genome and derive a family genealogy map of bacteria in various regions based on genetic variation.

How to make prevention:

1. Rationally standardize the use of antimicrobial drugs, especially the abuse of vancomycin, so as to reduce the emergence of multidrug-resistant strains.

2. Hand washing is the simple and most important measure to prevent the spread of pathogenic bacteria, but it is often overlooked, and the publicity and education on the importance of hand washing should be strengthened.

3. Reduce or shorten the application of invasive devices, such as central venous catheter indwelling and urinary catheter cannulation, so as to reduce the colonization of drug-resistant strains.

4. Patients with vancomycin-resistant bacterial infection should be isolated in time, wear gloves when entering the ward to prevent bacteria from widely contaminating the surface of items, and wear isolation gowns when touching patients.

5. Superbugs are mainly transmitted through contact, and the infection is mainly caused by people with low resistance, and will not cause great harm to the general population. The most important preventive measures are to pay attention to personal hygiene, especially correct hand washing, strengthen physical exercise, eat a reasonable diet, pay attention to rest, and improve the body's resistance.

6. If you go to the hospital to visit a patient infected with VRE, you should follow the guidance of the relevant personnel in the hospital, do a good job of disinfection and isolation, and avoid contracting this disease due to visiting. The outbreak of VRE infections in France once again reminds us that the rational use of antimicrobial drugs to control or slow down the emergence of bacterial resistance has reached the point where it cannot be delayed.

As long as prevention is carried out in the subtleties, superbugs will no longer be super! o(∩_o~

If there are two groups of microorganisms that affect people the most, they are bacteria and viruses. Some of them live in our bodies, help us digest food, help us break down nutrients, and live in harmony with us. But some of them destroy human health, make people sick and even die.

For example, millions of people are now dying every year worldwide from bacterial infections, while viruses kill tens of millions of people.

SuperbugsAlthough we currently do not have a silver bullet for viruses, we do have antibiotics for all kinds of bacteria, and most infections caused by bacteria can be treated with antibiotics. However, bacteria have evolved resistance to antibiotics due to overuse. Even more frightening is the emergence of superbugs that are resistant to a variety of antibiotics, killing 700,000 people worldwide every year.

While we have many antibiotics, getting infected with superbugs means that there are no antibiotics to do, only your own immunity. The scary thing is that superbugs have become more common over the years.

In recent years, it has been discovered that within the family of viruses, there is a group of viruses that specifically parasitize bacteria and cause them to die. Savvy scientists immediately realized that maybe we could use viruses to fight superbugs. Professor Hu Fuping, deputy director of the Institute of Antibiotics of Huashan Hospital affiliated to Fudan University, introduced that bacteriophages are mainly used for food preservation and sterilization in breeding and planting industries.

For example, in food processing, bacteriophages can kill pathogenic bacteria such as Listeria monocytogenes, and have outstanding advantages such as high efficacy and no residue.

<> these viruses are bacteriophages, and although they look like products made by humans, they are actually products of the natural environment. Many experts admit that China's phage research and industrialization are still in the exploratory stage in the fields of medicine and agriculture, and are generally scattered, and major projects lack continuous financial support, facing gaps in drug supervision. These are prominent bottlenecks in bacteriophage research.

Can use bacteriophages to deal with superbugs; Because the structure of the bacteriophage is relatively simple, the protein is wrapped with nucleic acid, as long as the bacteria are encountered, the protein on the surface will recognize each other with the protein on the cell surface, and if the recognition is successful, its own nucleic acid will penetrate into the bacterial body through the bacterial surface, leaving the protein of the virus outside the bacterial body.

I feel like it's a good way to deal with superbugs. Because bacteriophages are a restrained way for superbugs, and bacteriophages can completely destroy superbugs.

Bacteriophages can't deal with superbugs, because it's difficult for phages to survive normally in the natural environment and can't play a normal role, so they can't deal with superbugs.

I think we can use bacteriophages to deal with superbugs, because bacteriophages can cause serious harm to bacteria without harming our human cells.

You have a lot of questions, answer them one by one:

First, the difference between bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Bacteria are a kind of prokaryotic organisms, and the common ones are bacilli, cocci and the like; Fungi are generally eukaryotic microorganisms that parasitize saprophytes, and there are two major categories, one is the organisms that spoil food, that is, the hairs that grow on the top of food, and the other is large fungi, such as mushroom fungus; Viruses are a special kind of organisms that have no cell structure, superbugs or anything without viruses, don't think about it.

Second, what are antibiotics. Antibiotics are important for modern human health. Antibiotics are generally produced by fungi and are substances that are used to kill bacteria.

For example, we often hear about penicillin, tetracycline, chloramphenicol, erythromycin, and so on. These antibiotics work against different bacteria. They mainly kill bacteria by inhibiting enzymes in some metabolic processes in bacteria, or denaturing certain specific proteins.

When you get sick due to a bacterial infection, doctors in our country will generally prescribe you a large dose of antibiotics to help you treat the disease, which will certainly make you better quickly, because antibiotics have a strong killing effect on bacteria. But bacteria can mutate, you always use antibiotics, and some bacteria will make themselves resistant to antibiotics through genetic changes. This makes it possible to produce superbugs.

The emergence of this superbug is very accidental, but it is inevitable from a historical point of view. Because since the discovery and use of antibiotics, his dosage has increased dramatically. It's like you can't live in water, but one day the earth is flooded, and there will be new humans who can breathe with their gills.

The misuse of antibiotics in developing countries such as China is very serious, so it is prone to superbugs.

Third, there is no need to panic when superbugs appear in China, because as long as you want to do what you said, you will just need to be hygienic. And now superbugs are generally in hospitals, so don't go to the hospital, or do a good job of disinfecting them.

Fourth, it has the effect of killing bacteria against chloro-m-xylenol. But he is not an antibiotic.

Fifth, what's in Skincare. This question is a trade secret, and I don't think Skincare will tell you about it. But I can say that basically the famous soap box medicated soap in China can basically have a sterilization effect, not necessarily soothing the skin, as long as the method of washing hands is appropriate.

Finally, I wish you good health, don't be afraid of superbugs, now that biomedicine is developing rapidly, no problem hehe.

First of all, superbugs, I prefer to think that this is an exaggerated rumor that goes against the principles of nature. Although there may be some basis for naming it as a superbug in the first place (in the case of some antibiotics, it is absolutely impossible to note that it is impossible to be an antibiotic for all), no responsible doctor or scientist would admit to the existence of such a god-like bacterium.

Whether handwashing can reduce germs on your hands is a very controversial question, but handwashing can at least make it.

Dirt on the hands, metabolic waste, and these are the main substances of cell pollution.

The above are the rules related to cell culture, the disinfectant solution cannot completely kill the bacteria, and the bacterial content in the air is also considerable, especially in the southern region.

There are still some benefits to using Skincare, and it is indeed a good thing to maintain good hygiene. But don't do it, cleanliness is never a good habit and will cause some psychological distortions

When it comes to superbugs, a good mindset is important. But don't put too much emphasis on antibiotics and ignore the human organism, any drug is only an auxiliary in the process of fighting diseases. Our body has this layer of defense, and our body has this layer of immune system that destroys foreign substances.

This is really not too suspicious, it is something that has been circulated as pseudoscience.
