Abstract:

Getting admitted to a civilian or battlefield hospital these days often poses considerable risks and dangers. The ever-growing number of emerging diseases worldwide makes treatment of patients difficult and sometimes impossible. Many antibiotics are no longer effective against the simplest infections, which result in further hospitalizations with increased costs to the patients and governments worldwide. Microorganisms of prime concern include methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus, Clostridium difficile, multidrug and extensive drug-resistant Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae, and carbapenem- resistant Enterobacteriaceae, as well as bacteria that produce extensive spectram beta-lactamases, such as E. coli. An unusual decline in the discovery of new and effective antibiotics, these days, is only making matters worse. Despite government interventions, using diverse plans and some funding, the germs appear to be winning [1]. It is sad, to say, that governments, worldwide, are often concealing many dangerous outbreaks in numerous hospitals, including military service facilities. Deaths due to infections that could not be treated properly are often listed as due to respiratory or heart failure on the death-certificates. It is often stated that within three to four decades, these “superbugs” will kill more people, worldwide, than all deaths due to cancer and heart disease combined [1]. The World Health Organization has indicated that there has been a seven-fold increase in drug-resistant infections over the past eight years just among hospitalized children in the USA [1]. How can we reverse these deadly outcomes
