Super fungus infects more than 100 people in the United States, what is a super fungus?

Super fungus infects more than 100 people in the United States, super fungus is a virus that silently affects the world, we all know how powerful the new crown virus was last year, although the new crown virus has been basically controlled in China, but abroad, there are still mutant viruses. Previously, we had only heard of variants that had emerged in India, but now there are also superfungi in the United States that can be transmitted through human traffic. This super fungus is very resistant to antibiotics and has more than 60 out of 3 bloodstream fatalities.

This terrible fungus, called the candida auris fungus, has infected hundreds of people in the United States.

1. The candida fungus is very powerful. The reason why it is called a super fungus is because this virus is very powerful, not only has a strong drug resistance, but also has a very high mortality rate caused by blood infections, and a little carelessness may lead to death. At present, the United States can only adopt a controlled approach to prevent the spread of the super virus, and there is no better drug to carry it out**.

Second, fungi are ubiquitous, fungi we should all know that they are ubiquitous in this world, even in the air that we can't do without the most, there are fungi. Mold, yeast, and so on, these are all fungi. There are many types of fungi, and they all have their own unique properties, growing silently, some can help people, some are very fatal to people, and human beings can not find all the fungi that exist in the world for the time being.

3. Fungi are relatively close to our lives. As a kind of fungus, the existence of fungi is also relatively close to our lives, not only harmful, including our health industry, food industry, industry, agriculture and other aspects, may be inseparable from the existence of fungi. The fungus that is currently appearing in the United States is a fungus that poses a great threat to humans, and although people are actively researching, there is no better solution.

The super fungus, commonly known as Candida auris auris is an invasive fungus that can invade the bloodstream and infect the heart, brain and other vital organs of the human body. It is often resistant to a variety of antifungals, and commonly used antifungals sometimes do not work against it. It is difficult to identify, and there is a possibility that it could be falsely reported as another Candida species.

The super fungus is easy to spread in places such as hospitals and elderly care facilities, and it can survive in the environment for a long time, and can survive for a long time on the surface of patients and medical staff and hospital facilities, resulting in outbreaks in the hospital and the death of seriously ill patients.

It shows that it has extremely high drug resistance and a 60% mortality rate from blood infections, and if there is an infection in this case, a large part of the population may die, and the consequences of such a disaster are unimaginable.

Super fungi are also a type of bacteria, but this bacterium has a particularly strong ability to survive and is particularly harmful.

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said the aurium strain is spreading in two cities, with 101 people infected in a nursing home in Washington, three of whom were diagnosed with drug resistance, and a total of 22 people infected in two hospitals in Dallas, two of whom were resistant, while three of the five patients with drug resistance died. In 2009, Japanese scholars isolated the ear canal of an inpatient and named it Candida auris which can enter the bloodstream, heart or brain, and is very dangerous for people who are already seriously ill, with multi-drug resistance and a high fatal rate, and the death rate of infection with Candida auris is as high. 30%-60%, that's why it's called a super fungus.

Some of the patients appear to be infected with each other, and the CDC says this is the first time they have seen a cluster of drug resistance, and a healthy person can become a carrier of Candida auris without knowing it.

However, you don't have to panic too much, although this Candida auris can get sick, but the main group of people infected is still having problems with their own immune system, and it will not cause a super-spreading event under normal circumstances, but once you know that your area has been found, such as which places with low vaccination rates, then you really must pay attention, and here are a few ways to prevent disease.

1. Prevention and control of Candida auris should strengthen the infection control of Candida auris in hospitals, including strengthening the isolation of patients and improving the protection of medical staff. 2. Strengthen admission screening, strengthen personnel ** disinfection, chlorhexidine strengthen environmental disinfection chlorine-containing disinfectant and strengthen terminal disinfection (peroxide or ultraviolet disinfection). 3. Consider using disposable items such as blood pressure cuffs and pillows, especially during outbreaks.

4. The CDC in the United States recommends the use of echinocandins as the drug of choice for Candida auris, but 5% of isolates are useful for Acandida auris.

It is through interpersonal infection. That's why it's happening, and now three people are dead. The infection is very severe.

This fungus is also called Candida auris fungus, and experts say that Candida auris appeared because fungicides are widely used in agriculture, so this fungus is formed.

The main reason is that there are certain hidden problems in the United States, and this situation is also caused by the inappropriate handling of future affairs in the United States.

While the American people are still shrouded in the haze of the coronavirus pandemic, a superfungus that seems incurable has invaded American nursing facilities, adding to the panic. For people living in the United States, due to the capriciousness of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, and the relevant measures have not kept up in time, this makes many workers still need to have a fixed time to work from home, and masks seem to have become a kind of isolation tool that they have to wear in public. It also made the vaccination rate much lower than expected. And the appearance of the super fungus at this moment seems to add to this desperate atmosphere.

According to information released by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, some nursing homes and hospitals in Washington state and Dallas have seen the superfungal infection, and the frightening thing is that the number is rising. Conventional medication does not seem to be of much use to people with this superfungal infection, who are most likely to develop drug resistance. This super fungus, which originates from yeast bacteria, has been discovered for a long time.

However, it did not spread, and according to relevant researchers, as early as 2019, there were more than 600 infected people in the United States, including those who died, but they were not classified into emergency isolation groups at the beginning. And this germ tests the body's own immunity and physique, some people do not use medicine, but they will not die, and some people will soon die due to body organ failure, and conventional medicine has almost no effect on him.

U.S. agencies said they didn't pay attention to the superfungus because it didn't think there was any evidence of human-to-human transmission at the time, but now that it's spreading, the problem seems to be more serious than expected. At present, medical institutions and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention in the United States seem to be investing more in the new crown pneumonia, after all, the number of infected people is increasing every day, and they believe that if they increase the scope of vaccination, they will control the epidemic as expected. But unfortunately, a considerable part of the American people do not trust the American vaccine, believing that it has potential health risks.

And some untrue rumors in the market have also increased people's fear of vaccination.

The expansion of the number of superfungal infections has caused a lot of headaches for the US CDC and related medical institutions, and they have placed these infected people in a special nursing home for observation and **, and it is obvious that drug-resistant infected people are very close to death.

There is a huge fear in the local community, because many people are worried about contracting this disease.

The superfungus has invaded medical facilities in the United States, causing a lot of panic in the local area, many workers can only work from home, and their local vaccination rate is very low, so people feel very desperate, and the number of infections every day is very high, which brings a lot of challenges to their medical system.

As for the super fungus, it is very resistant, and the use of some antibacterial and anti-inflammatory drugs has not been able to eliminate them, and each of their strains is different in terms of drug resistance, and the mortality rate is also very low, but it can be **.

The first method of the drug is effective, the final lethality rate of this fungal infection is not particularly high, it does not reach the threat factor of public health safety, it is not as scary as people think, and so on. There are many people who do not understand drug resistance and mortality after infection.

Drug resistance is particularly strong, the outbreak is difficult, the probability of occurrence is low, and the mortality rate is low, but the complications caused by super fungi can be life-threatening.

It is an evolutionary version of the bacterium, which can **, he is more aggressive in terms of drug resistance, and his mortality rate is also very low, not incurable.

When the coronavirus outbreak in the United States was rapidly settling down for a while, leaving the Department of Health staff anxious, a superfungus began to spread in nursing homes and some hospitals in American hospitals. Officials at the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC) have found patients infected with the superfungus in one nursing home and two hospitals, and the problem is that there are few medicines for the superfungus. It seems to be completely up to the individual's physique and immunity to withstand it.

In closed nursing homes and hospitals, where there are more other patients with weaker constitutions, there seems to be no evidence that this super fungus can spread from person to person at first, but now the data confirms that it is a fungus that can be transmitted to each other.

U.S. officials said that some hospitals received data reports of similar superfungal infections as early as January and April this year, but other medical researchers questioned that such fungi may have appeared as early as 2019. It is reported that the name of this type of super fungus is Nianerjun, which belongs to a type of yeast fungus. It can easily break through people's defense systems, and when it enters people's hearts, brains and blood, it will be extremely dangerous.

Ordinary antibiotics and antimicrobial drugs are almost ineffective against it. The latest antimicrobial drug has developed resistance to many newly discovered infections. This has made many relevant researchers lament that this fungus has long been transmitted from person to person.

Probably back in 2019, more than 600 people with fungal infections were overlooked, and they were thought to be infected with another fungus, which is not fatal and has specialized drugs to deal with.

This super fungus depends entirely on the individual's physique and immunity, and if the infected person develops drug resistance, he is likely to face death, which also makes many American people who have not yet been vaccinated panic. In the United States, many local people believe that the current vaccine is not fully licensed, so there is still an unknown risk, so they are reluctant to get vaccinated. And some folk legends that have no basis at all believe that vaccines have a chip function, which is a little bit of an IQ tax.

The number of epidemics in the United States has also unnerved the local population, and the vaccination rate is still below expectations.

The coronavirus pandemic is still shrouded in gloom for the American people, and the surge in the number of superfungal infections has also made people feel as if they are in a dark space where no light can be seen.

Some even suspect that the superfungus was created by a mutation of the Covid vaccine.

It is easy to have some deaths after infection, and the speed of infection is very shocking, mainly because the virus is very fast and the mortality rate is extremely high, so this is also a thing that most people are very shocked.

At present, expert studies have shown that the existing common antifungal drugs may not be immediate**, so the harm is still very great.

No, because those patients are all drug resistant, and some people have died, and their infections are very serious.

OK. At present, many patients are not particularly effective for drugs, and drug resistance has appeared, and the situation is not optimistic.

"Super fungus"! When there is a case of infection for the first time in a place, the local public should pay attention to a few points, first of all, they need to improve their own immunity and make their body healthier, so that they are not easy to be infected. Secondly, we should raise our awareness of prevention, try not to go to the polluted environment, and do not receive infected people.

Recently, a confirmed case of the super fungus was found in Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina, and it is understood that this is the first time that this infectious disease has been detected in Argentina, this super fungal infection has a very high fatality rate and is difficult to eliminate with general methods, mainly through the contaminated environment and the spread of infected people. In this regard, local people should pay attention to the following points.

First of all, you need to improve your own immunity and make your body healthier, so that you are not susceptible to infection. Because doctors say that diseases like this generally do not affect people in good health, diabetics or people with chronic diseases or people with weakened immunity are particularly susceptible to infection, and they belong to the high-risk group. For healthy people, even if they are infected, they will not cause too serious harm, but the frail and sick people are very dangerous, especially prone to death.

Therefore, everyone should improve their immunity and exercise regularly to make their body healthier, so that they are not easy to be infected, and even if they are infected, nothing will happen.

Secondly, we should raise our awareness of prevention, try not to go to the polluted environment, and do not receive infected people. The reason why we want to raise our awareness of prevention is that the disease usually occurs in hospitals and nursing homes, where there is a high concentration of diseases. The spread of the disease is mainly through contaminated environments and infectious people, because there are such cases in hospitals, so they are more likely to be infected, and the hospital environment is easily contaminated.

Therefore, everyone should try not to go to the hospital and maintain good health is the most important thing. In a normal living environment, there is no need to be too nervous, but in an environment with patients, our awareness of prevention must be enhanced, wear a mask, and do a good job of protection.

That's all you need to know about this type of super fungus and how to prevent it.
