Well its a good thing we have the CDC and strong modern healthcare system in case it comes here. Oh wait...

A major study in The Lancet warns that life-saving treatments for newborns with sepsis are losing effectiveness across Southeast Asia due to drug-resistant bacteria. Researchers, led by the University of Sydney, found that nearly 80% of sepsis cases in newborns from Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, the Philippines, and Sri Lanka involve bacteria likely resistant to current drugs, putting thousands of infants at risk. Experts say urgent development of new antibiotics is needed as “we are running out of effective treatments for babies with invasive infections.” How can this growing crisis be solved?

They've done an amazing job of burying the lede in this article.

First up, the economic findings are nothing new since the O'Neill review from eleven years ago. Secondly, there's excellent focus group data that talking about "trillions of dollars" is extremely bad at changing people's attitudes and behaviours.

But finally, the article mentions that the UK government is cutting the Fleming fund which supports the developing world in countries efforts to combat #drugresistance

Starmer seems to be following a rather Trumpian playbook.

I remember a patient, let’s call him Mr. Henderson, a lovely gentleman who’d been through a tough but successful surgery. He was recovering, but then a fever spiked. #antibioticresistance #antimicrobialresistance #drugresistance #infectioncontrol #superbugs
