Victoria - gastro superbug which causes dysentery
Apr 23rd, 2019 at 2:35pm
 

Victoria - gastro superbug which causes bacterial dysentery, can't be fought with traditional means of antibiotic treatment.





"In Australia, shigellosis is most common in returning travellers and among gay men, and it's particularly contagious."

"In some parts of Australia, there are no effective oral therapies for shigella.

...if they need antibiotic treatment, what they actually will have to have is intravenous antibiotic treatment..."

Health authorities urge conservative use of antibiotics with gastro superbug on the rise

By Lexi Metherell on AM


Antibiotic resistance is on the rise, and now a strain of a gastro bug has been found in Australia that can't be fought with traditional means of antibiotic treatment.

Shigella causes bacterial dysentery and was once associated mainly with children in countries with poor sanitation.

But there is so much concern about fuelling its resistance to drugs that Victorian health authorities are now warning doctors not to prescribe antibiotics to treat it in almost all cases.

SABRA LANE: Antibiotic resistance is on the rise, and now a strain of a gastro bug has been found in Australia that can't be fought with traditional means of antibiotic treatment.

Shigella causes bacterial dysentery and was once associated mainly with children in countries with poor sanitation.

But there's so much concern about fuelling its resistance to drugs that Victorian health authorities are now warning doctors not to prescribe antibiotics to treat it in almost all cases.




Lexi Metherell reports.

LEXI METHERELL: In the early 2000s, the number of reported cases of gastro caused by the bug shigella averaged around 600 a year, but by last year, the number of cases had soared, with four times as many reports of the bug.

Even more alarming is its increasing resistance to drugs.

DEBORAH WILLIAMSON: In some parts of Australia, there are no effective oral therapies for shigella.

LEXI METHERELL: Associate Professor Deborah Williamson is from the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity.

DEBORAH WILLIAMSON: And what that means in clinical practice is that patients who have very severe shigellosis, if they need antibiotic treatment, what they actually will have to have is intravenous antibiotic treatment as opposed to just taking an oral antibiotic.

LEXI METHERELL: In Australia, shigellosis is most common in returning travellers and among gay men, and it's particularly contagious. It can be transmitted up to four weeks after the symptoms have gone.

It can resolve without antibiotics, but Professor Williamson says it can lead to hospitalisation for some groups....

'....can lead to hospitalisation for some groups.'

It's a gift from the Sudanese.
Africans have more genetic DNA variation than any other race, with the San Bushmen containing the most.
Any vaccines based on White people's DNA count fails to combat the more complex African 'Bantu' strains of disease.

Fragile little isolated Australian eggshells.
Dependent on 'artificial' immunisation boosting, because they can't 'naturally' survive or 'fear' to find out  Wink

It is probably a 'good practice' these days,
          to use the complementary trolley handle wipes, that some supermarkets provide [found beside the lines of nested trolley's].

Just a thought.




There are a lot of 'exotic' bugs these days, just floating around [where people congregate], waiting for you to pick them up,
...and then pick your nose.

Confirming,      that thanks to the policies of the 'lovies', Australia is slowly but surely morphing into a 3rd world SH!T-HOLE COUNTRY.



Thank you 'lovies'.

"IMO, if we join what is precious with what is vile, we do not in that act, 'improve' that which is vile.

We merely corrupt that which is precious.....

.....e.g.
I have two buckets.
The first bucket is full of clean, fresh water.
The second bucket is full of sewage.

Q.
If i pour both buckets into a third container, what do i get?

A.
A third container, full of diluted sewage.

Conclusion?
While i could safely drink from the 1st bucket, i could *not* safely drink from the 2nd bucket, or the 3rd container.

So it is with evil, that is 'tolerated' by good people.

No matter how many times we repeat the phrase, "Tolerance is good.",
...our tolerance of what is clearly evil, is not a virtue.

It is a process, a progression."

Why is my pain perpetual, and my wound incurable, which refuseth to be healed? wilt thou be altogether unto me as a liar, and as waters that fail?
19  Therefore thus saith the LORD, If thou return, then will I bring thee again, and thou shalt stand before me: and if thou take forth the precious from the vile, thou shalt be as my mouth: let them return unto thee; but return not thou unto them.

Our mission in life,      as Australians,      should be to make Australia like the New Jerusalem.

We should have high standards, and endeavour always, to keep the unworthy out of our nation, and, out of [separate from] our communities.



bojack,

Everyone probably aspires      to live in a 'space' [a country], which is peaceful, safe and prosperous.

aspires = = 'wants to'

A place, like the New Jerusalem.



Revelation 22:15
For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.




Choices.

Ours.

Consequences.

It isn't rocket science,      ....or pharmacology.

2 + 3 = 5      ....not 8 or 10 or 2.5



Again, our mission in life, as Australians, should be to want to make Australia like the New Jerusalem...

And if we fail, Australians can only blame themselves,      if Australia instead,
slowly but surely morphs into a 3rd world SH!T-HOLE COUNTRY.
.....and having the values and the standards and the circumstances and the sickness and the corruption and the crime rates,
which are found within any typical 3rd world SH!T-HOLE COUNTRY.
