Found a new drug to kill viruses?

Developed by Resysten in collaboration with scientists from Szeged University of Hungary, the new drug contains titanium dioxide, a substance harmless to humans but when exposed to natural or artificial light, create a reaction that kills harmful bacteria. This type of compound can last 1 year on surfaces.

The new drug contains titanium dioxide, a substance that is harmless to humans but when exposed to natural or artificial light, produces a reaction that kills harmful bacteria.

Mr. Janos Pinter, Director of Resysten Company, said: 'This is a surface treatment process thanks to natural and artificial light. A reaction will occur on the surface, creating an environment where bacteria cannot survive. '

The Ferenc Markhot Hospital in Eger City is the first hospital in the world to be completely covered with anti-bacterial sprays , a process that takes about 3 weeks.

The Ferenc Markhot Hospital in Eger City was the first hospital in the world to be completely covered with anti-bacterial sprays.

Mr Janos Pinter added: ' This is the first time in the world that a hospital has been fully disinfected. Disinfectants work very quickly, they kill all bacteria and other disease viruses. They work continuously, preventing bacteria from entering the environment 'surface.

Jozsef Vacity, director of Ferenc Markhot Hospital, told Reuters reporters: 'If someone carries the germ or bacteria on his hand and touches the edge of the bed, the bacteria won't survive. Their destruction will greatly reduce the risk of infection. '

Ferenc Markhot Hospital receives treatment for about 35,000 inpatients each year. Last year, the hospital had 915 infections, 42 died.

Ferenc Markhot Hospital receives treatment for about 35,000 inpatients each year.

By disinfecting the entire hospital, doctors are determined to reduce the number of infections by 10% here.

Mr. Jozsef Vacity said: 'We hope to reduce the number of infections by more than 10%'.

Hospital infections are a cause for concern in developing countries. According to the World Health Organization WHO, more than 1.4 million people worldwide are infected with health-related infections. This will not only increase the cost of treatment, but also increase the risk of antibiotic resistance, making treatment difficult. Therefore, the spraying of disinfectant throughout the hospital in Hungary is considered a new step, helping to prevent epidemics and bacteria of cross-infection in hospitals.

Resysten is seeking to expand its application across Europe.Not just at the hospital, but also on public transport.

With the success of Ferenc Markhot Hospital, Resysten Company is seeking to expand its application throughout Europe. Not just at the hospital, but also on public transport. The compound is expected to help reduce infection, cross-infection in hospitals and improve the quality of public health care.

In Vietnam, the hospital infection survey results at 36 hospitals in the North show that the current hospital infection rate is nearly 8%. It's good that more hospitals are getting access to anti-bacterial compounds like in Hungary. If not accessible, according to the World Health Organization, hand hygiene or hand washing will be considered a simple, cost effective homemade vaccine, as well as able to save millions of lives. . A single hand hygiene operation has reduced the ability to transmit the bacteria that cause diarrhea, up to 35%, which kills millions of people every year in the world.
