Drought Leads to Increased Antibiotic-Resistant Microbes in Soils

A new Caltech study indicates that drought increases the abundances of antibiotic-resistant microorganisms in soils, which directly correlates with an increase in antibiotic-resistant infections in hospitals. In other words, regions experiencing high aridity—hotter, drier regions—also experience higher levels of antibiotic-resistant infections. The work demonstrates the interconnectedness of climate, environment, and human health.

"On parle de nécroses, d'infections...": alerte sur les injections illégales qui explosent en France

C'est un marché parallèle en plein essor. Celui des injections illégales de botox et d'acide hyaluronique. Il y a eu plus 243% de signalements à l'ordre des médecins ces trois dernières années. Un phénomène devenu hors de contrôle selon les professionnels de santé avec des dangers bien réels.
