Bheka, i-Superbug isifikile! Kepha asikhulumi nge-movie yencwadi yamahlaya yakamuva; lokhu kungukuphila kwangempela-futhi kusabeka kakhulu kunanoma yini iMarvel engaphupha ngayo. Ngesonto eledlule, iCenters for Disease Control (CDC) imemezele icala lowesifazane onegciwane elinohlobo lwe- E. coli elingazweli kumuthi wokugcina wama-antibiotic colistin, okwenza lesi sifo simelane nayo yonke imishanguzo eyaziwayo yezidakamizwa. Leli yicala lokuqala elatholakala eU.S. (Psst... "I-Super Gonorrhea" Futhi Yinto Esakazekayo.)

Owesifazane, owaya emtholampilo ecabanga ukuthi unesifo somgudu womchamo nje, uyaphila manje, kodwa uma lesi sidakamizwa esinenkani elwa namagciwane singasabalala, kungabuyisela umhlaba emuva esikhathini lapho kwakungekho ma-antibiotic, kusho uTom Frieden , MD, umqondisi weCenters for Disease Control and Prevention, enkulumweni yakhe eNational Press Club eWashington. "Kungukuphela komgwaqo wama-antibiotic ngaphandle kokuthi sithathe isinyathelo ngokuphuthumayo," esho, wengeza ngokuthi kungenzeka ukuthi kukhona amanye amacala e-E. coli anokuguquka okufanayo kofuzo lwe-mcr-1.

Lokhu akuyona into encane. Idatha yakamuva ye-CDC ikhombisa ukuthi abantu abangaphezu kwezigidi ezimbili batheleleka ngamagciwane amelana nemithi unyaka nonyaka, kanti abangama-23,000 babulawa izifo zabo e-U.S. I-World Health Organisation ithi ukumelana nama-antibiotic kungenye yezinsongo ezinkulu kwezempilo isintu esibhekene nazo, sibika ukuthi amacala ohudo, i-sepsis, i-pneumonia ne-gonorrhea amelana nemithi athelela izigidi emhlabeni jikelele.

Ngenhlanhla, kunezinto ongazenza ukuze uzivikele futhi usize inkinga ngaphambi kokuba ifinyelele emazingeni enkinga.

1. Umsele insipho elwa namagciwane. Insipho elwa namagciwane, okokugeza umlomo, imithi yokuxubha amazinyo, neminye imikhiqizo yezimonyo equkethe i-Triclosan yandisa izinga lokumelana nama-antibiotic, ngokusho kwe-U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Futhi, ucwaningo lukhombisa ukuthi abakuhlanzeli kangcono kunezinsipho ezijwayelekile ezindala. Ezinye izifundazwe sezivele zivinjelwe ngokuphelele.

2. Yakha amagciwane akho amahle. Ukuba ne-microbiome enempilo, ikakhulukazi emathunjini akho, kuyindlela yakho yokuzivikela engcono kakhulu emgqeni wokuqala kuma-bacteria amabi. Amagciwane amahle akhulisa futhi avikele amasosha akho omzimba, ingasaphathwa eyokuba nethoni lezinye izinzuzo ezinhle zezempilo. Ungathatha isithasiselo esihle se-probiotic noma umane wengeze ukudla okumnandi, okungokwemvelo kwe-probiotic njenge-yogurt, i-kefir, i-sauerkraut, ne-kimchi ekudleni kwakho.

3. Musa ukuncenga udokotela wakho ngemithi elwa namagciwane. Uma uzizwa kabi, kungakulinga ukufuna nje umuthi othile ukuze uzizwe ungcono. Ayikho into embi njengokungena unecala elibi lomkhuhlane bese utshelwa ngudokotela wakho ukuthi okuwukuphela kwendlela ongakhetha ngayo ukubuyela ekhaya uyohlupheka. Kodwa ungazami ukhulume naye ukuthi akunikeze ama-antibiotic "uma kwenzeka". Ngeke nje basize ukutheleleka ngegciwane, njengomkhuhlane noma umkhuhlane, kepha lapho sisebenzisa kakhulu ama-antibiotic amagciwane amaningi "afunda" ukumelana nawo, okwenza inkinga ibe mbi kakhulu. (Ngabe Udinga ama-antibiotic? Ukuhlolwa Kwegazi Okusha Okungenzeka Kungasho.)

4. Hlolelwa ama-STD. Ngenxa yokwanda kwamuva kwezifo ze-gonorrhea nogcunsula, izifo ezithathelwana ngobulili manje sezingenye yezimbangela eziphambili zezifo ezibangelwa amagciwane asabekayo. Ukuphela kwendlela yokumisa lezi bugs ukuthi ziphathwe ngokushesha, ngaphambi zingasakazekela kwabanye abantu. Lokhu kusho ukuthi kubaluleke kakhulu ukwenza isiqiniseko sokuthi uhlolwa njalo. (Ingabe ubuwazi Ucansi Olungaphephile Manje Oluyingcuphe engu-#1 Yokugula, Ukufa Kwabesifazane Abancane?)

5. Thatha yonke imiyalo enqunyiwe njengoba kunqunyiwe. Uma uthola ukugula okubangelwa amagciwane, imithi elwa namagciwane ingasindisa ukuphila-kodwa kuphela uma uyisebenzisa ngendlela efanele. Qiniseka ukuthi ulandela imiyalo kadokotela wakho ngqo. Iphutha elikhulu kakhulu le-rookie? Hhayi ukuqeda inkambo yama-antibiotic ngoba uzizwa ungcono. Ukushiya noma yiziphi izimbungulu ezimbi emzimbeni wakho kuzivumela ukuba zivumelane nezimo futhi zimelane nomuthi ngakho-ke ngeke zikusebenzele (futhi ekugcineni nanoma ngubani).

6. Yidla inyama engenazo izidakamizwa. Amaphesenti angaphezu kwama-80 ama-antibiotic aya emfuyweni ukuyisiza ikhule ibe mikhulu futhi isheshe, ngokusho kwe-WHO, futhi lokho kungenye yezimbangela ezihamba phambili zokumelana nama-antibiotic. Izilwane eziseduze zihlala endaweni ekahle yokuzalanisa amagciwane atshintshanisa izakhi zofuzo, nokuthi ukumelana nemithi kungadluliselwa kubantu. Ngakho-ke sekela abalimi bendawo nabaphilayo ngokuthenga inyama kuphela engakhuliswanga ngemithi elwa namagciwane.
