AIDS: Superbugs?! Haven't heard of it.

Flu: What are superbugs?

Clostridium difficile reverts to influenza: superbugs refer to pan-drug-resistant bacteria and some multidrug-resistant bacteria, and are not limited to one bacteria. I'm a type of superbug.

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus: I'm also a superbug.

Vancomycin-resistant enterococci: I'm also a superbug.

Vancomycin-resistant staphylococcus: +1

Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae: +1

Multidrug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa: +1

Pan-drug-resistant Acinetobacter: +1

ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae: +1

Multidrug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis: +1

AIDS: Wow, so many superbugs!

Influenza: It turns out that superbugs are bacteria that can fight against antibiotics, antibiotics are weapons invented by humans to deal with bacteria, and superbugs have the ability to resist this weapon, which is simply a superpower.

Clostridium difficile returns to the flu: Yes, I have superpowers.

Clostridium difficile for AIDS recovery: superpowers, so magical, little shuttle's autobiography pasted up.

Clostridium difficile: Here is my autobiography.

I, Clostridium difficile, nicknamed "Clostridium difficile".

I am widely present in the natural environment, in animals, and in the human intestine, and is a normal flora of the human intestine.

I have many siblings in the Clostridium difficile family, and one of them is a toxin-producing brother.

In some cases, such as after a large dose of antibiotics in the host, the intestinal flora is dysbiosis, and my toxin-producing brothers will multiply, release toxins, and cause the host to become ill.

The host will have fever, abdominal pain, and diarrhea......

Because my toxin-producing brother is resistant to all kinds of antibiotics, the host can easily die if it is infected by me.

My superbug brother is essentially an antibiotic-resistant strain, which is the result of frequent antibiotic use in humans.

In fact, bacterial drug resistance is a biological phenomenon in nature, which is the inevitable result of our microorganisms coping with various adverse environmental factors and maintaining their own survival in the process of evolution.

Ever since the invention of antibiotics, our family of bacteria has been in a race against antibiotics.

In nature, there are various drug resistance genes in our vast microbial family, and the abuse of antibiotics has put pressure on us to screen and accelerate the emergence of drug-resistant superbugs.

New antibiotics have been invented and used, and new drug-resistant strains have been screened for ......

It is a process of mutual struggle.

What makes humans tremble even more is that once the genes of drug-resistant superbugs appear, they will be transmitted to surrounding bacteria with the plasmid, and this drug-resistant plasmid is infectious.

Of course, when antibiotics don't work for superbugs like mine, humans think of other ways to deal with us.

Fecal microbiota transplantation!

The feces of a healthy person are transplanted into the patient's intestine and the disordered intestinal flora is replaced with normal intestinal flora.

Countering microbes with microbes.

Humans are using the hands of their microbial brothers and sisters to drive away superbugs.

However, although I was driven away, I was able to survive in the natural environment.

As long as the host human abuses antibiotics again and causes immune dysfunction, my superbugs can take advantage of the situation.

Clostridium difficile with AIDS recovery: Wow, a poop can defeat a superbug! Xiao Shuo, are you amazing? Or is it too cowardly?

Clostridium difficile reverts to AIDS: I am not defeated by the antibiotics invented by humans, but by the flora in the poop, they are all my own brothers and sisters, and I am not ashamed.
