The truth about bacteria causes massive death

Information on massively lethal Klebsiella pneumoniae at Israeli hospitals has put health officials in the country on . fire, especially when it is reported that the Jewish Ministry of Health has deliberately concealed the truth about this extremely dangerous virus .

Until now, experts at the Israeli Ministry of Health are still not sure whether drug-induced Klebsiella pneumoniae was the cause of about 200 deaths after a viral outbreak in many hospitals in the country, because of the above. in fact, this bacterium is usually harmless in healthy people. Despite this, Minister Yaakov Ben-Izri also said that the nationwide hospital system has been instructed to perform hygiene and to conduct isolation and control measures.

In another development, the head of the Israeli Society for Infectious Diseases, Prof. Itamar Shalit, said at least 200 people have been infected with this bacterium this year and more than half have died . 'Maybe bacterial infection Klebsiella has been present in most national hospitals . ' - he said.

Not the only one!

According to Dr. Galia Rahav, an infectious disease specialist at Tel Hashomer Hospital, it is not until now that the health sector is confronted with the phenomenon of drug resistance, and Klebsiella pneumoniae is just one of many. .

For years, European countries have warned about the risk of MRSA, short for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The word MRSA is used not only for strains of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, but also includes other resistant strains of bacteria that show signs of neutralizing with one or more antibiotics, such as VRSA - vancomycin resistant Staphylococcus aureus, or Staphylococcus aureus bacteria. resistance to vancomycin, GISA - glycopeptide intermediate Staphylococcus aureus, ie Staphylococcus aureus neutralizing glycopeptide . These modified bacterial strains are currently operating in many hospitals in England, France and other countries. Especially the PVL - Panton-Valentine bacterium leukocidin, extremely toxic. Unlike the Staph family, PVL is much more dangerous because it is difficult to treat and can cause many complications when combined with other diseases. Other infections like Clostridium difficile also show signs of increasing in many hospitals in some developed countries .

Klebsiella pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus or MRSA are generally the common bacteria, often present in our throat, skin and intestines. Some cases can cause mild inflammation in healthy people. Based on different levels of immunity to antibiotics, the experts divided MRSA into 17 different lines. The two main lines are MRSA 15 and MRSA 16, considered to be the most worrisome because of their strong infectious capacity, accounting for 96% of blood infections in the UK. But these two lines are very rare in other countries, such as Klebsiella in Israel and Clostridium difficile only in England, mainly Scotland and Wales.

However, there seems to be a general trend that all are outbreaks and strong transmission. Antibiotics are almost no longer effective, but patients still need higher doses for a long time, or other alternative antibiotics can be used .

New variation line

Types of MRSA in general can cause many different infections, such as pneumonia, blood infection and soft tissue infections . Victims are often those with weak immune systems and stay in the hospital. in the long term due to infections, especially when simultaneously contracting various diseases. MRSA can cause widespread infection, depending on the location of the body, including surgical incision, burns, secretions, eyes, skin and blood .

It is estimated that at least 100,000 people are accidentally infected each year after hospitalization. But the main problem is that these viruses can survive longer in non-body environments such as floors or toilets, and quickly spread through the air. As Clostridium difficile easily causes disease when certain antibiotics make the digestive environment disruptive. As a bacterium found in the intestinal tract of more than 3% of healthy adults and 66% of children, Clostridium difficile is usually harmless. However, it can cause illness when thriving without being controlled, such as a disorder of intestinal balance after antibiotic use, which will cause Clostridium difficile to proliferate, which can cause mild diarrhea. severe, some cases of prolonged intestinal inflammation, and will be life threatening .

According to experts, cleaning hands and supplies with standard antiseptic and bleach is the most effective way to eliminate the risk of MRSA. But the worrisome thing is that this infection has increased in healthy people, not just elderly and weak patients in hospitals. Although new antibiotics are constantly being developed, medical experts believe that a global outbreak of MRSA infections is only a matter of time, when medicines in the pharmacy Products are completely disabled. But the most frightening disease is the slow response of health officials in dealing with the disease!
