|
| 10/16/2016 - Do you spray Roundup on the weeds in your yard? Do you get prescribed antibiotics by your medical doctor the second you have symptoms of sickness, like a sore throat, a stuffy nose, or maybe some yellow or green mucus? Do you eat meat that's not labeled organic?
In each of these ways, you could be...
|
 | 9/30/2016 - The excessive use of antibiotics in humans and farm animals can drive drug-resistant bacteria to thrive. These so-called superbugs are resistant to most traditional last resort antibiotics. Despite this danger, U.S. hospitals continue to over-prescribe these drugs.
In a new report researchers from...
|
 | 9/15/2016 - For years we have been warning of an impending medical catastrophe due to the over-prescribing and overuse of antibiotics.

Now, scientists...
|

Reports indicate that the Candida auris fungus, which was first identified in Japan in 2009, has already infected...
|
 | 5/30/2016 - It's always interesting to study how civilizations collapse and eras of seemingly great human ingenuity come crashing to an end.

For thousands of years, breastfed children have benefited from this additional protection against disease...
|
| 6/16/2015 - It's a trend that has swept through hospitals and medical clinics: the use of anti-bacterial wet wipes and alcohol-based cleaning gels that are meant to prevent the spread of disease. However, these items are actually creating ideal conditions for the spread of disease to the extent that "superbugs"...
|
 | 5/5/2015 - A new drug-resistant "superbug" is circulating the country, and health officials say it was brought in from overseas. The Associated Press says Shigella has already triggered more than 200 illnesses since last May, and experts worry that the bacteria might be here to stay.
People who recently traveled...

|
 | 3/5/2015 12:13:13 PM - Pharmacies give away antibiotics out their drive-thru window like Tootsie Rolls being tossed out in a parade.

|
 | 10/4/2014 - When "patient zero" first showed up at Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas with what have now been determined to be some of the early symptoms of Ebola, he was reportedly turned away by hospital staff, who handed him a regimen of antibiotics and told him to basically just go home and sleep it off.

|
 | 3/28/2014 - If a jumbo jet crashed into the ocean every single day, it would roughly equal the number of Americans who die each day following superbug infections acquired at U.S. hospitals.

|
 | 3/11/2014 - A top scientist and "risk engineering" expert is now publicly warning that GMOs pose a dire, genuine threat to the continuation of life on Earth.

|
 | 10/22/2013 - Locked in a battle with an extremely drug-resistant superbug last year, doctors at the National Institutes of Health's Clinical Center played one last card.

|
 | 9/17/2013 - In a breakthrough moment of truth for the CDC, the agency now openly admits that prescription antibiotics have led to a catastrophic rise in superbugs, causing the death of at least 23,000 Americans each year (an estimate even the CDC calls "conservative").

 | 11/20/2012 - There's little argument -- even from mainstream medicine -- that too many doctors routinely prescribe antibiotics for illnesses, such as the common cold, for which these prescription drugs do nothing. The result is a potentially nightmarish proliferation of antibiotic resistant superbugs. Bottom line:...
|
 | 8/30/2012 - The age of antibiotics is over. It's history. There are no more patented chemical antibiotics in the pipeline.

|
| 7/9/2009 - It's scary enough to have a newborn baby in a neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) because he or she is premature or has health problems.
