Yes Kong they are being banned for everyday use . Your Hospital should supply you with Hospital grade Antibacterial when you go for the orientation and they explain what when how and how long it all takes .

I have been rather peed off with the use of antibacterial in normal soaps for everyday use because the very reason you state Kong resistance .

Superbug Source Remains a Mystery

Maybe the source is what we eat.
Both humans and livestock are "treated" with antibiotics even they are not sick.
The extensive use of antibiotics worldwide is now the reason that we now have so much of multiresistant bacterias. MRSA, VRE, MRG.
In several parts of the world it is multidrug-resistant tuberculosis, gonorrhea, salmonella and other bacteria that cause diarrhea problems and is now seen as examples of bacteria that soon can not be treated with any antibiotic!

I wouldn't panic about them Janne just make shore you shower with antibactrial soap before you go to have any major procedure at a hospital .

Eating I don't think is a problem , you get salmonella poisoning and you live or you don't so all ways cook meat properly wash ya veggies

Golden Staph and those type of things are all around you it's only a problem in a open wound a bit of Iodine on the wound and ya right with a bit of fresh air usually unless you need stiches

TB mmm not good
Gonorrhea well that one is easy mate Don't let the little head do the thinking :)
and I covered Salmonella

I don't panic. Yet!
The problem is that we all take so much antibiotics.
Ordinated from doctors and also often selfmedicated.
That and eating food from livestock that also take antibiotics.
Soon there are no antibiotics that can cure our diseases.
ALL health organisations are aware of this and sort of start to panic.

For instance, TB will be a bigger killer than cancer in about 2030.
Yes. Only 15 years from now.

Ah, but those are being banned... Or, at least, the consumer over-the-counter varieties....

At best, they are useless... At worst?? Well... possibility of resistant strains of bacteria with over-use.

http://www.fda.gov/ForConsumers/ConsumerUpdates/ucm378393.htm

FDA wrote:

Triclosan can be found in many places today. It has been added to many consumer products—including clothing, kitchenware, furniture, and toys—to prevent bacterial contamination. Because of that, people’s long-term exposure to triclosan is higher than previously thought, raising concerns about the potential risks associated with the use of this ingredient over a lifetime.

In addition, laboratory studies have raised the possibility that triclosan contributes to making bacteria resistant to antibiotics. Some data shows this resistance may have a significant impact on the effectiveness of medical treatments, such as antibiotics.

The FDA and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) have been closely collaborating on scientific and regulatory issues related to triclosan. This joint effort will help to ensure government-wide consistency in the regulation of this chemical. The two agencies are reviewing the effects of triclosan from two different perspectives.

The EPA regulates the use of triclosan as a pesticide, and is in the process of updating its assessment of the effects of triclosan when it is used in pesticides. The FDA’s focus is on the effects of triclosan when it is used by consumers on a regular basis in hand soaps and body washes. By sharing information, the two agencies will be better able to measure the exposure and effects of triclosan and how these differing uses of triclosan may affect human health.

The EPA reevaluates each pesticide active ingredient every 15 years. The EPA’s Final Work Plan for the triclosan risk assessment can be found in docket EPA-HQ-OPP-2012-0811.

Superbug Source Remains a Mystery

Medical detectives said Friday they are still baffled about how much-feared drug-resistant superbugs infected two people in the U.S. this year, but they have good news: both patients recovered and don't seem to have infected anyone else.

The medical team also reported the fourth known case in the U.S., involving a Connecticut toddler.

DNA confirms cause of 1665 London's Great Plague

DNA testing has for the first time confirmed the identity of the bacteria behind London's Great Plague.

The plague of 1665-1666 was the last major outbreak of bubonic plague in Britain, killing nearly a quarter of London's population.

It's taken a year to confirm initial findings from a suspected Great Plague burial pit during excavation work on the Crossrail site at Liverpool Street.

About 3,500 burials have been uncovered during excavation of the site.

Testing in Germany confirmed the presence of DNA from the Yersinia pestis bacterium - the agent that causes bubonic plague - rather than another pathogen.

Some authors have previously questioned the identity of microbes behind historical outbreaks attributed to plague.

Nigeria Faces 'A Famine Unlike Any We Have Ever Seen Anywhere'

Nigeria is on the brink of "a famine unlike any we have ever seen anywhere", according to the United Nations.

Nearly a quarter of a million children in Nigeria's north east are severely malnourished, according to the UN's Assistant Secretary-General Toby Lanzer.

Millions more are thought to be starving in refugee camps that are too dangerous for aid agencies to reach.

This invention by a British student could save millions of lives across the world

A 22-year-old British student has invented a mobile fridge that could save millions of lives across the world.

Will Broadway's "Isobar" has been designed to keep vaccines at the ideal temperature while in transit in developing countries.

And Will doesn't plan to make money from his creation.

His focus is to get it to people who need it, which is why he won't be trying to get a patent.

"I make things every day for people who have everything," Will, an industrial design and technology graduate from Loughborough University, tells Newsbeat.

"I wanted to make something for people who have next to nothing. It should be a basic human right, in my opinion, to have a vaccination.

"I don't think that it should be patented to restrict use."

Cancer Moon shot ..... The 10 point plan has 1 or 2 good ideas but the rest mmmm

A Medical data base mmmmm a idea Americans wont like possibly ...Big Bro and all that ...

Prevention mmm Does that mean the American Gov. will do what country's like England and Australia are doing about smoking cigarettes , stop company's using Dangerous man made Chem's. , Ban the use of Petrol ???

Stop putting additives in food Blah Blah

Other things should all ready be happening eg: better Chemo Drugs at cheaper rates (holding Drug Company's to there claims !)..But once again something stoped the American Gov. from doing something to help the Drug Company's make money but stop ripping people off with over the top claims and high prices for there Drugs .

Good piece of Ball dust is what the Moon Shot is a P.R exercise . The next Mob will change everything anyway by the looks of it "Go Trump Go"

Scientists find deadly scrub typhus bacteria in South America

LONDON – Scrub typhus, a deadly disease common in southeast Asia and spread by microscopic biting mites known as chiggers, has now taken hold in a part of South America and may have become endemic there, scientists said on Wednesday.

The tropical disease, which kills at least 140,000 people a year in the Asia-Pacific region, has been confirmed in a cluster of cases on a large island off Chile, some 12,000 kilometers from its usual haunts on the other side of the Pacific.

Scrub typhus has been known of for years and the bacteria that causes it was first identified in Japan in 1930.

It is caused by the bacteria, Orientia tsutsugamushi, transmitted by chiggers, and spreads through the lymphatic fluid. Those infected find the illness can begin quite suddenly, with shaking chills, fever, severe headache, infection of the mucous membrane in the eyes, and lymph node swelling.

Cancer ‘moonshot’ panel names top 10 ways to speed progress against the disease

The Obama administration's "cancer moonshot" took a major step forward Wednesday when a committee of top cancer researchers and patient advocates recommended an ambitious set of scientific goals designed to sharply accelerate progress against the disease.

The 10 ideas, which were developed by a blue-ribbon panel, dealt with an array of topics, including research, clinical trials, data mining, prevention and patient engagement.

WHO strengthens Zika safe sex guidance

Men and women returning from any area where the Zika virus is circulating should practice safe sex for at least six months to avoid the risk of spreading the disease, says the World Health Organization.

The advice applies even if a person has no symptoms.

It comes a few weeks after doctors discovered the virus in the sperm of an Italian man six months after he first had Zika symptoms.

Zika is spread in bodily fluids.

The main risk of catching the disease is from infected mosquitoes via bites.

Previously, WHO had said men without symptoms only needed to use condoms or abstain from sex for eight weeks as a precaution against spreading Zika.

TB kills three people every minute – the world must wake up to this pandemic



The leading cause of death from infectious disease worldwide, tuberculosis (TB), is associated with immigration in the UK. There, I’ve said it. Now let’s move on because no Donald Trump-esque wall or Brexiteer is going to keep TB out. Perhaps we should ban all migration? Quite frankly that is a ridiculous notion; one that someone with even the most isolationist of stances would struggle to justify.

Some might argue that we could extend our current TB screening policy (people wishing to move here from countries where TB is common are checked pre-entry) to incorporate testing and treatment for the silent or latent form of the disease, but this would not cover the millions of people who come to the UK for up to six months on a tourist visa. Not to mention the ethical considerations. In any case, there is currently no effective way to treat the latent form of multi-drug resistant TB (MDR-TB). So, to my mind, there really is just one choice – we must tackle TB on a global scale and that means overseas investment.
