A "neutral gender" recognized by the courts for the first time in France

La justice a ordonné à l'état civil de la mairie de Tours de modifier l'acte de naissance d'une personne intersexuée mais enregistrée comme étant de sexe masculin pour y appposer la mention "sexe neutre", dans un jugement rendu le 20 août 2015
Neither male nor female, but "neutral gender". For the first time in France, a person born without genitalia obtained full justice to change their civil status, but this decision is challenged on appeal.
The person, heretofore considered a man, received on August 20 the judge for family affairs of Tours a change in marital status are to be marked "gender neutral", told AFP the vice prosecutor Tours, Joel Patard, confirming a report in newspaper 20 Minutes.
According to his lawyer, Mila Petkova, the applicant, aged 64, wished to remain anonymous. He lives in the east of France, is married and has adopted a child. His application was filed in Tours, because it is his hometown.
Born, according to his doctor, with a "rudimentary vagina" and a "micropenis" but no testicles, he suffers? Have been in the male box from birth, says 20 Minutes. "As a teenager, I? Ve realized I n? Was not a boy. I don? Had no beard, my muscles are not strengthened," he told the newspaper. "Today, I finally feel accepted by society as I am."
The Deputy Prosecutor explained that the applicant had submitted late June to demand justice for the modification of civil status.
"He would not see mentioned so determined membership in the male category the parts he provided does not allow storing it as easily and unequivocally in the other legal category. It only knows two, male or female, "he told Mr. Patard.
- 'Mutilating operations' -
Mr. Patard said it had appealed to the Court of Appeal of Orleans who will conduct a new review of the application at a date not yet known.
"I did not mind frenzied opposition by calling (...) but also just to know the position of another level of jurisdiction and insofar as where all is understandable that such a request comes when even hitting the legislative and regulatory corpus such as is currently available, and as applied, "he has said.
"We're not in the role of the legislator to create the law where it does not yet exist or to change the points that already exist," he has observed.
Mr. Patard, who met with the applicant, acknowledged that the person was suffering. "It falls minority situations but which nevertheless exist and with which people have adapted nilly during significant periods" of their lives, he said.
If 20 Minutes says that the decision of the court Tours is a first in Europe, Mr Patard is more cautious, saying it simply does not seem to be any precedent in French law.
"I ventured to try to see what could be earlier decisions that have been handed down on the matter, I found very little, if not at all," he said.
In 20 minutes, the applicant said that his doctors made him take testosterone when he was 35 years old. "My look is masculinized. It was a shock. I did not recognize myself. It made me realize that I was neither male nor female," he reflects, before denouncing "operations mutilating "now inflicted with intersex babies.

Here is how climate change will also change our diet The production of certain foods such as coffee or chocolate could be significantly affected by global warming. Read more athttp://www.atlantico.fr/decryptage/voici-comment-changement-climatique-va-aussi-modifier-notre-alimentation-

Voici comment le changement climatique va aussi modifier notre alimentation
Throughout the year, scientists have continued to alert public opinion to the many consequences that will result from climate change, such as the probable extinction of an animal species in six worldwide. Chief among their concerns is also the question of the risks that harvests will be exposed, and many foodstuffs. In many parts of the world, farmers will face daily complications, and sometimes deep in their activity.

To better understand the changes that the agricultural sector will face, and efforts by scientists to adapt the crops to drought, the British channel BBC recently sought the opinion of several researchers and specialists around the world.

Using genes from "resurrection plant", Jill Farrant, a researcher at the University of Cape Town, for example, is working to increasing the lifetime of crops without these have need water.

Despite alarmist statements many experts saying that "food is endangered", nothing allows today to affirm with certainty that the widespread foods such as beans, chocolate, wine, corn, or flour will cease to exist in the near future. "Crops will not be directly affected by the possibility of extinction (...) they will continue to grow somewhere in the world," says Andrew Jarvis, who heads a research group in the US on climate change, agriculture and food security.


If a major risk of extinction and large scale food stuffs is to exclude the future of our food is not provided reassuring. In many regions, the man will certainly change the places where he now used to grow his crops. If such a scenario were to be confirmed, several people may be deprived of certain foods. "Although the majority of the food industry is not reached, food safety may be impacted," said Margaret Walsh, who works on environmental issues at the US State Department.

If some cultures still manage to be developed in some parts of the globe, it is not certain that the inhabitants of the planet can have access like today. Furthermore, the production of certain foods such as coffee or chocolate would likely be significantly affected by global warming. The level of impact these foods depend on the magnitude of global warming, but in general, the regions where temperatures exceed 30 degrees Celsius are particularly hostile to agriculture, says Wolfram Schlenker, University professor Columbia. For example, according to statistics studies developed with his teams, the production of corn and soybeans in the United States suffers from a drastic decrease when temperatures exceed the threshold of 30 degrees Celsius.


North Pole: Temperatures climb above zero degrees CLIMATE meteorological measurements reveal temperatures of twenty degrees above seasonal averages North Pole ..

Un ours polaire sur la banquise.
Hot shot on the North Pole. Temperatures between 0 and 2 degrees Celsius were measured there Wednesday. It's twenty degrees above seasonal norms. These exceptionally mild temperatures are due to a "powerful and violent" depression that affects the North Atlantic under Canadian weather services.

From twenty two degrees more
This depression has informed eastern Canada a Christmas unusually hot (15.9 degrees Celsius on December 24 in Montreal for close to seasonal averages -10 degrees), before winning the North Atlantic Ocean.
Currently focused on Iceland, this weather phenomenon has reduced the pressure of air at 928 hectopascals and winds led to 140 km / h and waves of 15 meters high. "This deep depression advancing warm air to the North Pole, where temperatures are at least greater than 20 degrees C compared to the normal" lying "around the freezing point 0, 1 and 2 degrees "said Natalie Hasell, meteorologist at the Canadian Ministry of the Environment.
>> Melting glaciers of Antarctica: Sea levels rise by 3 meters
US scientists from the North Pole Environmental Observatory (NPEO) found that the mercury had climbed sharply the past two days, from -37 ° C Monday at -8 ° C Wednesday on a tag located in the Arctic about 300 km from the North Pole, said James Morison, a researcher at NPEO.
Capital of Inuit territory of Nunavut, northeast of Canada under the Arctic Circle, Iqaluit recorded at Christmas temperatures of -4.6 ° C and -4.9 ° C, -21 ° C against average of never seen again. Baffin Island, on which is Iqaluit, even experienced rains in December, said David Phillips, meteorologist at the Canadian Ministry of the Environment. "This is probably El Niño who ventures to the North," said he has about this weather phenomenon that occurs every four to seven years on average.
The Arctic is the region most affected by global warming globe, now with higher temperatures of three degrees minimum compared to pre-industrial times, according to international institutes. Resulting more frequent snowfalls, stronger winds and a steady decline in ice for over 30 years.
One consequence of global warming?
It would be too early to link the mild temperatures observed at the end 2015 at the North Pole global warming, warned Natalie Hasell, noting that meteorologists based their conclusions did not "a single fault". Especially since the Canadian National Meteorology has no records of temperatures on the roof of the Earth, she said.
However, "it's really weird to have temperatures around zero late December at the North Pole," she noted, stressing that depression, with warmer temperatures would move in the coming days to the Siberia in northern Russia.

Pollution: road access forbidden in Milan

Pollution : la circulation en voiture interdite à Milan
Italy faces a pollution peak. Then, several large cities have decided to take drastic action. In Milan, for 48 hours, cars are banned and new behaviors appear in town. "I come by bike because of the ban. I am obliged to work, but it makes me feel good to tired to remove the excesses of Christmas," said a Milanese France 2.

Visible effects
In Milan, the absence of wind and persistent fogs make difficult the dispersion of pollutants. The holiday period reduces traffic then this is the perfect time to try. The first effects are felt. "Are falling for example carbon monoxide, dioxins and benzene," said Matteo Lazzarini, regional air quality agency in Milan. The experience ends tonight, but these results will be analyzed carefully.

But how to explain the exceptional weather events of late 2015

Au Chili, le phénomène climatique El Niño amène les pluies nécessaires pour transformer le désert d'Atacama en champ de fleurs. , Mario Ruiz
There is no simple answer "to explain the exceptional phenomena, sometimes deadly, observed both in Europe and the United States, Australia and Latin America, said Jerome Lecou, ​​forecaster engineer at Météo-France. "It was a combination" of factors, approves climatologist Herve Le Treut. The El Niño weather phenomenon plays an "obvious" role in some of the phenomena observed on the planet, notes Hervé Le Treut.
El Nino, which occurs every four to seven years on average, is caused by a change in direction of the trade winds over the equatorial Pacific. The warm surface waters, which normally accumulate in the eastern Pacific, moving westward, resulting in increased rainfall on the west coast of America and more droughts in South-east Asia and Australia.
It "strongly affects the climate of the United States currently," "it is the major cause" of what is happening, says Hervé Le Treut. Deadly tornadoes in Texas, unusual in this season, as the softness observed in the northeast of the country is partly due to this phenomenon, he adds.
The 2015 El Niño episode, the most powerful in 100 years
El Niño is a natural phenomenon but the 2015 episode is "probably the strongest in the last 100 years," says Jérôme Lecou. The World Meteorological Organization (WMO), a UN agency, warned in November that it would gain in intensity by the end of the year. This "El Niño event extremely powerful" example explains "particularly intense floods of Paraguay side and the north of Argentina," said Jerome Lecou. The very hot weather in Australia also match "quite logically El Niño periods"

HIV / AIDS does not spare young

Malgré diverses stratégies de prévention, l’épidémie de VIH en France reste active. Près de 7 000 nouvelles contaminations y sont recensées chaque année. Ainsi, deux populations sont particulièrement concernées : les « hommes ayant des rapports sexuels avec les hommes (HSH) » et les personnes originaires d’Afrique subsaharienne (lors d’un rapport hétérosexuel). Qu’en est-il des adolescents et jeunes adultes ? […]
Despite various prevention strategies, the HIV epidemic in France remains active. Nearly 7000 new infections are recorded every year. Thus, two populations are particularly affected: "men who have sex with men (MSM)" and people from sub-Saharan Africa (in a heterosexual). What about teenagers and young adults? The latest issue of the Weekly Epidemiological Bulletin (BEH) provides an answer.
In 2013, nearly 730 young people aged 15-24 years discovered their HIV status. More than 11% of all findings. Commenting on these data, should be divided into two classes that audience: adolescents (15-17 years) and young adults (18-24 years). And among these, 686 were diagnosed positive. Two-thirds were men, mainly contaminated in a homosexual relationship. In this group precisely, since 2003 the number of new cases has more than doubled.
This increase among MSM seems alarming. The study gay and lesbians Press 2011 has also shown that under 30 seronegative may not adopt a preventive behavior during casual sex.
For their part, young women have almost exclusively been infected through heterosexual intercourse. Injectable drugs are responsible "only" 0.4% of new cases.
Finally, for all of these young adults, a majority is detected at an asymptomatic stage, 14% however, the diagnosis is late (at a particular stage AIDS).
Teenagers spared?
The 15-17 years seem less concerned. In 10 years (between 2003 and 2013), 524 of them have learned their HIV status (65% girls). Nearly 6% of these discoveries were related to transmission from mother to child, diagnosed late.
Given these facts and in a context of trivialization of the disease, "it is important to continue and encourage preventive actions against adolescents and young adults. This requires projects integrating sexual health issues (HIV, STIs, unwanted pregnancies ...) and specific actions among young MSM, "insist the authors of the BEH. "Young people are a favorite target in the fight against the HIV epidemic. As such, they have a program to promote sexual health developed by the INPES. Which is based in particular on the free availability through professional associations and relay information brochures and prevention material (condoms and lubricant gels). "

Resurgence of AIDS in Eastern Europe and Central Asia

Recrudescence du sida en Europe de l'Est et en Asie centrale
The monitoring data published by the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control and the Regional Office of the World Health Organization (WHO) showed that 142,197 people had HIV infection diagnosed in 2014, according to a recent study published in BMJ.
The epidemic continues to progress rapidly in Eastern Europe and Central Asia. The injecting drug users (IDUs) still account for 45% of new cases. * The figures reveal an increasing heterosexual transmission. Homosexual men are certainly under-represented in these statistics because of taboos that strike, as is the case with the prostitute (e) s.
In this region, it is estimated that about 1.4 million people infected with the AIDS virus. 85-90% of them are in Russia and Ukraine, where the proportion of infected people is around 1%. However, these figures are incomplete. Indeed, countries like Uzbekistan do not provide statistics, while Turkmenistan "announcement" having "zero AIDS cases."
Overall, the transmission of the virus from mother to child has largely decreased. In this area, Russia has made significant progress, with past rate of 19% in 2000 to 6.2% in 2007, according to the government. But increasing the number of adult women with HIV may be problematic in the future.
Access to antiretroviral treatment is still unsatisfactory
It is estimated that a quarter of people living with HIV are treated to the whole region, about 350,000

HIV self-test: tester of 4 would not go to a testing center

A Illicopharma study, the majority of AIDS self-tests are purchased online. And a tester four would not have made screening approach without this access to Autotest.
Since last September, more than 70,000 AIDS testing self-tests have been sold. According to a survey conducted by Illicopharma as part of the World Day against AIDS, and conducted on a panel of 314 customers, the majority of self-tests have been purchased online. Furthermore, 28% of people who do a test for the first time said they would not have made screening approach without this access to Autotest.
"The placing on the market autotest therefore possible to reach a wider audience. This is an advanced given the number of HIV positive people in France who are unaware of being" stressed Illicopharma, an online pharmacy website.
Reasons screening
Three main reasons are cited by buyers POST:
- As a result of risky behaviors (55%)
- To stop the condom (26%).
- Curiosity (16%) following the media coverage of the launch of the self-test.
The key numbers
- 63% of buyers are men
- Average age 36.5 years
- 36% of those surveyed made an initial screening of HIV through POST
- 75% of buyers say they are heterosexual, 15% gay men and 10% bisexual.
"Significant difference in behavior man / woman vis-à-vis the self-test, men tend to buy two self-tests in a command, while women are confined to a single test" adds Illicopharma. Why two self-tests? "In 43% of cases, the second self-test is intended for the other member of the couple. And in 57% of cases, it is a way to ensure the outcome or to re-test following a new risk behavior ".
And you, would you rather choose the self-test or test screening center?

AIDS: the self test solution   A major campaign was launched for screening on Tuesday December 1st World Day against AIDS.

Sida : la solution de l'autotest
On the occasion of the world day of fight against AIDS, Tuesday 1 December, a large screening campaign was launched. Today when we want to know, now you only have to go to a chemist and ask for an HIV test to do at home. "It's simple [...] a drop of blood is sufficient to complete the five minutes, fifteen minutes to read it," said Guillaume Cardin, pharmacist, the microphone of France 3.
Soon free?
The test is extremely reliable. Today it is found in two pharmacies in five in France. But this test is not really acclaimed. At issue: the price including. The self-test cost 28 euros on average, far too expensive for many association members. "We expected what today is the health law that normally should include the provision of free self-tests in the associations," said Christopher Depalle for its part, responsible for Aids Auvergne project. This request could result in the first quarter 2016. In the meantime, to test for free, there is always anonymous screening centers with medical assistance or community centers. An estimated 30 000 people are HIV positive in France without knowing it.

Ebola survivors retain serious sequelae    Months after their recovery, Ebola survivors often suffer from visual disturbances up to blindness, hearing problems and joint pain, according to a study that assesses for the first time the seriousness of the legacy of the virus

This is the first time that doctors studying the extent of sequelae Ebola patients based on clinical examination, say the authors of the study published today in the specialized medical journal, The Lancet Infectious Diseases.
The research was conducted using data collected from patients in clinical Ebola survivors in Port Loko in Sierra Leone, one of the West African countries hardest hit by the epidemic.
The scientific data on the effects of Ebola were previously limited because during previous epidemics, there were few survivors. The research was also focused exclusively on the fight against the virus and the development of a vaccine. Since last year, WHO found, however, complications in many survivors, evoking a "post-Ebola Syndrome".
A total of 277 survivors (57% women) were examined for this study between March 7 and April 24, four months on average after their recovery. 76% of them suffered from arthritis, 60% of vision problems, 18% of inflammation in the eye (potentially sight-threatening) and 24% of hearing disorders such as tinnitus.
"These figures are higher than what we expected," he told AFP one of the authors of the study, Sharmistha Mishra of the University of Toronto.
However, researchers admit that "there are important limitations to this study," since they did not have a basis for comparison with a group not infected with Ebola patients. They have not been able to measure accurately hearing disorders in the absence of necessary equipment.
Another problem: "At this stage we do not know" the duration of these effects, they acknowledged. But they suggest a study in Uganda two and half years after the epidemic of 2007, which reported persistent symptoms for more than two years.
Symptoms that require care specialists
If the Ebola virus is rapidly disappearing from most bodily fluids after healing, may remain "websites sanctuaries" in the eyes or testicles, also argue the researchers, including Dr. John Mattia, one of the few ophthalmologists Sierra Leone.
In the study researchers also suggest a possible correlation between the amount of virus in patients and extent of complications after recovery. In other words, the virus would be more virulent plus sequelae, in particular eye, would be important.
"These studies highlight the need for early monitoring of Ebola survivors and urgency to include eye care in the West African country health systems." Because "these symptoms can be very severe and disabling," told AFP the Dr. John and Dr. Matthew Mattia Vandy.
In these countries' access to even basic health care is difficult, and specialists such as ophthalmologists are rare. "
In June, Liberia, he announced the launch of a major study over a period of five years, based on thousands of volunteers to identify long-term effects of the virus.

Homemade braces: "They can cause tooth loss," warns an orthodontist

La Fédération française d'orthodontie (FFO) met en garde, vendredi 18 décembre, contre les vidéos permettant de fabriquer un appareil dentaire maison.
The titles of tutorials are dreaming: "Get a free dentures and quickly at home", "Make a brace for five dollars" ... Friday, December 18, the French Federation of Orthodontics (FFO) warned the public against the proliferation of adolescents videos explaining how to make their own braces.

If the phenomenon is fashionable in the United States, it is not yet widespread in France, but professionals prefer to warn: "These methods are dangerous and can cause many complications," said Maxime Rotenberg, orthodontist and member of the FFO to FranceTV info.

Trombone, wire and elastic
To remedy the dental "imperfections", adolescents publish videos showing how to use fireworks to align their teeth, get a diastema (a gap between the incisors) or otherwise bring them together. Trombone, wire, fishing line ... Everything is good to get a perfect smile.

To reconcile its incisors, the most common technique is to place a rubber band around both teeth to bring them closer. There are three years, the American Shalom De Sota has set an example in a video viewed more than 950,000 times on YouTube. Three years later, she does not regret it.



Contacted by FranceTV info, the young native girl Massachusetts ensures that its teeth "going very well". Besides, if Shalom has used the "home" is more than willing by necessity: "I had no money to pay me braces because my parents could not pay health insurance. I thought other people might be in the same situation as me, and I wanted to share my idea with the world. " His parents even find that his invention is "creative," she says. "They were not worried, I am not stupid." She said Shalom got the desired result in a few months.

"I must admit that girls who use this technique do it with some skill, says Maxime Rotenberg, the problem is that there are also real risks of inflammation and loosening of teeth." Moreover, improvise orthodontist seems risky. "We work with a dynamometer during our studies, we study the movement of teeth, their growth ... It does not just happen!"

Infection of the gums and tooth loss
Among the noise corridor that run between orthodontists, there is this story of a grandfather who, to address its incisors too far apart, would have surrounded a rubber band. "With the force of the spring, the teeth are close together in rotation, and took the form of cones," said Maxime Rotenberg. History has it that with saliva, the elastic is back on the gum, entering it to "cut the fibers attached to the teeth to the gums." That grandfather had existed or not, professional warns: this is how "teeth begin to move at the risk of losing them.".

In France, only one case was reported by Dr. Jean-Baptiste Kerbrat, doctor dentist in the hospital Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital in Paris; He was a 12 year old boy who had lost his two teeth after being surrounded by an elastic, reports Le Figaro. Unlike the United States, health insurance and mutuals are accessible, and allow better access to dental care. "I think it is therefore more a fad," hopes the specialist.


The brain has no sex

Certain (s) will be delighted (s). Other rather disappointed (e) s. A new study indicates that brain perspective, men are not from Mars, or women from Venus. But rather an intermediate planet hybrid between the two, and still unknown. It was long believed that the brains of men was on average larger than that of women. We now know that this is false. Or at least, that the relationship between body weight and the brain is exactly the same for both sexes. We also know that it is not the number of neurons that matters, but the number and type of connections they establish. And this architecture spider three-dimensional plastic and is likely to change.
The study published in PNAS by Daphna Joel, from the School of Psychology at the University of Tel Aviv, and colleagues shows that "human brains can not be classified into two distinct types, the female brain and male brain. " This is not why there are no differences. There are more "feminine" traits, other more 'male' and finally other "neutral". Each brain is anatomically slightly different, functioning well, inducing different behaviors. Plasticity fact that shapes based on all the elements of our personal history. It is like a mosaic reflection of each course.
"Here we show that, although there are differences between male and female in the brain and behavior, humans and their brains are made up of" mosaic "features, some more prevalent in women compared to men Some conversely, and other present in both written Daphna Joel. Our results demonstrate (...) that the human brain can not be classified into two distinct classes, male or female. "
Researchers sifted recordings of different types of medical imaging performed on more than 1400 people. They analyzed the white matter, gray matter and connections (by the techniques of "connectome", aimed at establishing a comprehensive plan of neuronal connections in the brain). The aim was to identify areas rather "female" or rather "masculine". That the female brain is more "verbal" or slightly less effective for all that concerns the visualization and mental rotation in three dimensions, it has some slightly more developed glands under the action of hormones, it does not change basically gives ...
Catherine Vidal, neurobiologist and member of the ethics committee of Inserm, likes to repeat: "It is impossible to guess, looking at an adult brain, if it belongs to a man or a woman." If brains have large anatomical differences from one individual to another, "the differences between the brains of people of the same sex are far more important than any differences between the sexes."

After 12 hours stop
 After this period, you will succeed more easily find sleep. Your oxygen levels in the blood increases, while, mechanically, the rate of carbon monoxide down.
After 24 hours of judgment
Good news: the risk of having a heart attack away in no small way.
After a 48-hour stop
You Reclaim you some sense that had been damaged by smoking, such as smell or taste. The reason ? The nerve endings that line the affected areas are restored.

The passive smoking more dangerous for animals than for men

Le tabagisme passif plus dangereux pour les animaux que pour les hommes
Pets living in a smoking environment have also, health problems. Including cats, due to self-grooming their fur.
We know the harm of passive smoking, can cause asthma, lung cancer or a stroke in people who have never smoked. No wonder, since tobacco smoke contains 4000 harmful substances, at least ten proven carcinogens. But a new study underscores that living in a smoking environment also impacts on the health of pets.
"Greater risk than men because animals spend more time at home with their owner and closest carpets where carcinogenic particles may persist" said Professor Clare Knottenbelt, the Veterinary Hospital of the University of Glasgow (UK), in the Daily Telegraph.
"Our study in cats shows that they are more affected than dogs because of self-grooming their fur, because it increases the amount of particles ingested" she insists.
Dogs smokers grow
But dogs are not spared. Glasgow University researchers have discovered that when they live with a smoker owner, they gain more weight after sterilization in a smoke-free home. The study also focused on the testes of males after sterilization and the researchers found that a gene that acts as a marker of cell damage was higher in dogs living with smokers owners.
"Pet owners do not think about the impact that smoking can have on their pets. But these remain with them longer than children who spend their days at school" insists veterinarian.

Damaged cells, weight gain after castration and increased possibility of contracting certain cancers lurking animals exposed to cigarette smoke, said Clare Knottenbelt, Professor of Medicine and Oncology at the University of Glasgow Veterinary Institute, and author of the study.
"We have already demonstrated that dogs consume a significant amount of smoke when they live in a house. Our study shows that cats are even more affected, perhaps because of their careful toilet that would increase the amount of particles smoke absorbed by their body, "the professor said in a statement Tuesday by the University of Glasgow.
The study also noted that nicotine levels in the hair decrease significantly if consumption in the house drops below ten cigarettes a day.
Glasgow The researchers also found in the testes of males castrated damaged cells a marker gene, more present in dogs living in a smoking household.
This gene is altered in some dog cancer and it is less so when the owner smoke out of the house, reducing the exposure of her pet.
"The risk for smoking doubles the risk of passive smoking and for other dogs and cat owners often forget the risk they pose to their pets," said the professor, who argues for stopping tobacco, "the best solution for the health and well-being of your companion."

Bacteria resistant to the most powerful antibiotics ...

Soigner
British doctors have discovered bacteria that can resist antibiotics to which we turn as a last resort.
Every year in France more than 160 000 patients are hit by infections with antibiotic-resistant bacteria, and 13,000 of them die directly. When all antibiotics fail, doctors are turning to polymyxins (colistin and polymyxin), the powerful antibiotics called "last resort". However, health authorities in Britain have discovered bacteria can resist those antibiotics. MCR-1 gene, which renders bacteria resistant to colistin, has indeed been found in samples of Escherichia coli from human and pork meat as well as samples of Salmonella, UK.
Alert antibiotic-resistance
Following an alert on this antibiotic-resistance launched in China last November, British doctors analyzed 24,000 samples of bacteria and they have discovered the MCR-1 gene in fifteen samples from two human patients but as pigs and poultry.
However, the health authorities want to reassuring part because the identified organisms can be killed with proper cooking. "In addition, all bacteria that we have identified with this gene were susceptible to other antibiotics, known as carbapenems, penicillins family" says Professor Alan Johnson, head of Infection and Antimicrobial Resistance Department of Health Agency British public.
On 17 December, the veterinary authorities of the Netherlands had made the same discovery, the offending gene has been detected in samples of salmonella collected between 2014 and 2015, from Dutch chicken meat and "import turkey."
