LONDON (Reuters) - People who embark on "health tourism" trips to India and Pakistan to get cheaper medical treatment risk picking up and spreading a new superbug, according to an international <leo_highlight style="border-bottom: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 150); background-color: transparent; background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-attachment: scroll; background-position: 0% 50%; -moz-background-size: auto auto; cursor: pointer; display: inline; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" id="leoHighlights_Underline_0" onclick="leoHighlightsHandleClick('leoHighlights_Underline_0')" onmouseover="leoHighlightsHandleMouseOver('leoHighlights_Underline_0')" onmouseout="leoHighlightsHandleMouseOut('leoHighlights_Underline_0')" leohighlights_keywords="team" leohighlights_url_top="http%3A//shortcuts.thebrowserhighlighter.com/leonardo/plugin/highlights/3_2/tbh_highlightsTop.jsp?keywords%3Dteam%26domain%3Dforums.delphiforums.com" leohighlights_url_bottom="http%3A//shortcuts.thebrowserhighlighter.com/leonardo/plugin/highlights/3_2/tbh_highlightsBottom.jsp?keywords%3Dteam%26domain%3Dforums.delphiforums.com" leohighlights_underline="true">team</leo_highlight> of scientists.
The researchers found a new gene called New Delhi metallo-beta-lactamase, or NDM-1, in patients in Asia and in Britain. NDM-1 makes bacteria highly resistant to almost all antibiotics, including the most powerful class called carbapenems.
With international travel for healthcare on the rise, the scientists said they feared this new superbug could soon spread around the world.
In a study published in The Lancet Infectious Diseases journal on Wednesday, the researchers found that NDM-1 is becoming more common in Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan and is starting to be imported back to Britain in patients returning from these countries.
"India also provides <leo_highlight style="border-bottom: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 150); background-color: transparent; background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-attachment: scroll; background-position: 0% 50%; -moz-background-size: auto auto; cursor: pointer; display: inline; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" id="leoHighlights_Underline_1" onclick="leoHighlightsHandleClick('leoHighlights_Underline_1')" onmouseover="leoHighlightsHandleMouseOver('leoHighlights_Underline_1')" onmouseout="leoHighlightsHandleMouseOut('leoHighlights_Underline_1')" leohighlights_keywords="cosmetic" leohighlights_url_top="http%3A//shortcuts.thebrowserhighlighter.com/leonardo/plugin/highlights/3_2/tbh_highlightsTop.jsp?keywords%3Dcosmetic%26domain%3Dforums.delphiforums.com" leohighlights_url_bottom="http%3A//shortcuts.thebrowserhighlighter.com/leonardo/plugin/highlights/3_2/tbh_highlightsBottom.jsp?keywords%3Dcosmetic%26domain%3Dforums.delphiforums.com" leohighlights_underline="true">cosmetic</leo_highlight> surgery for other Europeans and Americans, and it is likely NDM-1 will spread worldwide," the scientists, led by Timothy Walsh from Britain's Cardiff University, wrote in a report of their findings.
Multi drug-resistant bacteria are already a growing problem in hospitals across the world, marked by the rise of "superbug" infections like methicillin-resistant Staphyloccus aureus (MRSA).
Walsh and his international <leo_highlight style="border-bottom: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 150); background-color: transparent; background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-attachment: scroll; background-position: 0% 50%; -moz-background-size: auto auto; cursor: pointer; display: inline; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" id="leoHighlights_Underline_2" onclick="leoHighlightsHandleClick('leoHighlights_Underline_2')" onmouseover="leoHighlightsHandleMouseOver('leoHighlights_Underline_2')" onmouseout="leoHighlightsHandleMouseOut('leoHighlights_Underline_2')" leohighlights_keywords="team" leohighlights_url_top="http%3A//shortcuts.thebrowserhighlighter.com/leonardo/plugin/highlights/3_2/tbh_highlightsTop.jsp?keywords%3Dteam%26domain%3Dforums.delphiforums.com" leohighlights_url_bottom="http%3A//shortcuts.thebrowserhighlighter.com/leonardo/plugin/highlights/3_2/tbh_highlightsBottom.jsp?keywords%3Dteam%26domain%3Dforums.delphiforums.com" leohighlights_underline="true">team</leo_highlight> collected bacteria samples from hospital patients in two places in India, Chennai and Haryana, and from patients referred to Britain's national reference laboratory between 2007 and 2009.
They found 44 NDM-1-positive bacteria in Chennai, 26 in Haryana, 37 in Britain, and 73 in other sites in Bangladesh, India, and Pakistan.
Several of the British NDM-1 positive patients had recently traveled to India or Pakistan for hospital treatment, including <leo_highlight style="border-bottom: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 150); background-color: transparent; background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-attachment: scroll; background-position: 0% 50%; -moz-background-size: auto auto; cursor: pointer; display: inline; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" id="leoHighlights_Underline_3" onclick="leoHighlightsHandleClick('leoHighlights_Underline_3')" onmouseover="leoHighlightsHandleMouseOver('leoHighlights_Underline_3')" onmouseout="leoHighlightsHandleMouseOut('leoHighlights_Underline_3')" leohighlights_keywords="cosmetic" leohighlights_url_top="http%3A//shortcuts.thebrowserhighlighter.com/leonardo/plugin/highlights/3_2/tbh_highlightsTop.jsp?keywords%3Dcosmetic%26domain%3Dforums.delphiforums.com" leohighlights_url_bottom="http%3A//shortcuts.thebrowserhighlighter.com/leonardo/plugin/highlights/3_2/tbh_highlightsBottom.jsp?keywords%3Dcosmetic%26domain%3Dforums.delphiforums.com" leohighlights_underline="true">cosmetic</leo_highlight> surgery, they said.
Most worryingly, NDM-1-producing bacteria are resistant to many antibiotics including carbapenems, the scientists said, a class of the drugs generally reserved for emergency use and to treat caused by other multi-resistant bacteria such as MRSA and C-Difficile.
Experts commenting on Walsh's findings said it was important to be alert to the new bug and start screening for it early.
"If this emerging public health threat is ignored, sooner or later the medical community could be confronted with carbapenem-resistant (bacteria) that cause common infections, resulting in treatment failures with substantial increases in health-care costs," Johann Pitout from the University of Calgary in Canada wrote in a commentary in same journal.

Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease (HFMD) and acute respiratory infection - caused mainly by flu viruses - hit epidemic levels last week, while diarrhoeal illness (or stomach flu) rates were just below the epidemic threshold.

There were 819 cases of HFMD reported last week, the fifth straight week the epidemic threshold of 679 cases was breached. So far this year, 16,222 HFMD cases have been reported. But an MOH spokesperson said despite the high number of cases, the disease remains mild and there has not been any case of severe complications so far.

Most of the acute respiratory infection cases are also mild and self-limiting, said the spokesperson. Flu viruses are the most important cause, but the <leo_highlight style="border-bottom: 2px solid rgb(255, 255, 150); background-color: transparent; background-image: none; background-repeat: repeat; background-attachment: scroll; background-position: 0% 50%; -moz-background-size: auto auto; cursor: pointer; display: inline; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;" id="leoHighlights_Underline_1" onclick="leoHighlightsHandleClick('leoHighlights_Underline_1')" onmouseover="leoHighlightsHandleMouseOver('leoHighlights_Underline_1')" onmouseout="leoHighlightsHandleMouseOut('leoHighlights_Underline_1')" leohighlights_keywords="ministry" leohighlights_url_top="http%3A//shortcuts.thebrowserhighlighter.com/leonardo/plugin/highlights/3_2/tbh_highlightsTop.jsp?keywords%3Dministry%26domain%3Dwww.todayonline.com" leohighlights_url_bottom="http%3A//shortcuts.thebrowserhighlighter.com/leonardo/plugin/highlights/3_2/tbh_highlightsBottom.jsp?keywords%3Dministry%26domain%3Dwww.todayonline.com" leohighlights_underline="true">ministry</leo_highlight>'s surveillance has not found "any significant rise in influenza activity in recent weeks".

As for stomach flu, MOH said a variety of infectious and non-infectious causes could be behind the 2,464 cases seen at polyclinics last week. Although this number is lower than the week before, it is still above the warning level of 2,391 cases. MOH has not identified any large outbreak or other contributing factors to the increased incidence of the illness.

MOH advised the public not to go to school or work when ill. They are also urged to wash their hands frequently, especially before food preparation and meals.

Those in high-risk groups like the elderly and young children should also get relevant vaccinations, MOH said.

But not everyone has been acting responsibly. Mr Isaac, a father of three, said his children contracted HFMD two weeks ago. His son had contracted the disease from another boy at the Choa Chu Kang childcare centre they attend.

"The childcare centre sent out letters reminding parents to be vigilant, and I heard from my mum that they did a thorough clean-up," said Mr Isaac, who declined to give his surname. His children, aged one-and-a-half to four, have since recovered, but he remains worried about a recurrence.

"Hygiene is the most important thing. When it hits, it's too late," he said.

It could well be the New World Order's plan to eliminate the excess world population.

I'd give David Rockefeller a kiss if all these excesses are destroyed.:p

Meanwhile our NWO correspondent Watchman has the scoop.

Watch! Stop eating and get your ass back!!!
