Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria

 Once again an alarming statistic which we cannot ignore.  We need to protect ourselves from these everyy increasing suber bugs that kill.  How sad to think that we go into the hospital to get well and come out worse off or even dead.

 Antibiotic overuse and inappropriate use – such as taking antibiotics to treat viral infections -- bears a heavy responsibility for creating the antibiotic-resistant superbug crisis we are facing today.


 Antibiotic Resistance: How Did This Happen?

Hospital Virus

 This report is totally alarming.  So many people I have heard of not in the US have aquired an infection from a Hospital stay.  It is frightening to think that we go into hospital to get better and come out with the deadly infection.  Not only is this appalling but these bugs take ages and many courses of Antibiotics to cure.  Please be vigilant and follow the guidelines to avoid this bug should you have to go into hospital for whatever reason.
