Recently, scientists have warned of a "super bug" which could potentially spread word-wide. This new strain of bacteria,NDM-1 if even resistant to the strongest anti-biotics,
carbepenams.
As carbepenam is regarded as a last resort anti-biotics, this shows the severity of this matter, sending a message to the world. NDM-1 is going to spread quickly. Scientists anaylised that NDM-1 has a certain gene which alloes it to spread and also to diverse.
I belive that with the current research on NDM-1, everyone have to be alert for this "super bug". Once it spreads, it could lead to another major health problem.
While scientists are trying to stop bacterias from evoving, no matter how advanced the technology is, it is impossible to completely prevent forming of new bacteria, or a health threat. With NDM-1's unique gene, it allows the bacteria to evovle more quicky thus making it more difficult to curb.
While there is such a report on an impending health worry shows, the chage of bacterias are multiple and Man cannot predict what will happen next. I hope that people will take this more seriously, so as to prepare themselves on what to do in case of a crisis.
