    A superbug is a drug-resistant bacterium that can cause sores and blisters in people, and even gradually make people die of muscles. What's even more terrifying is that antibiotic drugs don't work against it, and the patient will have terrible inflammation due to the infection, high fever, convulsions, coma and finally death. The terrible thing about this germ is not its lethality to people, but its resistance to ordinary bactericidal drugs - antibiotics, for which people have almost no medicine.

    In 2010, the United Kingdom** broke out: a new superbug NDM-1 was found in South Asia, which is extremely resistant and can spread globally.

    Diseases caused by germs were no longer a lethal threat to humans[2], and antibiotics** were effective in every infectious disease, but this was before antibiotics were abused. About 50% of antibiotics are abused in the world every year, and in China the proportion is close to 80%. It is precisely because of the abuse of drugs that the germs quickly adapt to the antibiotic environment, and various superbugs are born one after another.

    In the past, a patient could survive with a few dozen units of penicillin, but now millions of units of penicillin are ineffective for the same condition. Antibiotics cannot be controlled due to infections caused by drug-resistant bacteria, which eventually leads to the death of the patient. In the 60s, about 7 million people died each year from infectious diseases worldwide, and this number rose to 20 million at the beginning of this century.

    The number of deaths from sepsis has risen by 89 per cent, with the majority dying from difficulties with medication caused by superbugs.

    Efforts have been made to find a new drug to defeat the superbug, but it has not worked. Moreover, as the world gradually reaches a consensus on the misuse of antibiotics, the status and efficacy of antibiotics are questioned and strictly regulated. While the germs spread, the research and development of antibiotics gradually stalled.

    Losing the once powerful antibiotics, people began to look for inspiration to fight diseases from the simple treatment methods of the past. Finding a healthy and natural ** that uses human autoimmunity to defend against the attack of superbugs has become a new consensus of many people about disease.

    Superbugs are not really the name of a bacterium, but the name of a class of bacteria that have in common a strong resistance to almost all antibiotics. With the passage of time, the list of superbugs has become longer and longer, including Aebritica coli, multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Pandrug-resistant Bacillus pneumoniae, Pan-drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, etc.

    Recently, a small outbreak of a resistant superbacterium NDM-1, which can resist most antibiotics, in countries such as the United Kingdom, the United States and India, is actually a special enzyme that can enter the DNA mitochondria of most bacteria to survive, so that the bacteria develop widespread drug resistance, because this bacterium was first found in cosmetic surgeons and surgeons who traveled to India for medical treatment, and was also called "New Delhi" bacteria by the West**.

    01 Vancomycin-resistant enterococci VRE, this superbug is mainly destroyed in the hospital infection department, and the medical community is very serious.

    02 Campylobacter, mainly found in chicken, duck meat and dairy products, these animals can also be infected after human consumption.

    03 Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus MRSA, a superbug multi-drug resistant, which is the most typical, common and serious, is very tricky.

    04 Carried by Escherichia coli and Klebsiella pneumoniae with the NDM-1 gene, this superbug is almost indestructible.

    05 These bacteria are likely to be hospital-acquired infections, so we should pay attention to prevention and remember to wash our hands frequently.

Superbugs refer to the abuse of antibiotics to make bacteria more and more resistant, so this type of bacteria is collectively referred to as superbugs. Superbugs also refer to methoxybenzenicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus MRSA, which is a type of bacteria that is difficult to diagnose and treat because it is difficult to kill it with general antibiotics. Once humans, especially patients with low immunity, are infected with this germ, it often causes complications such as sepsis and pneumonia, which is life-threatening and quite dangerous for mothers, the elderly and children. >>>More
