Nothing is more inconvenient than a sudden sore throat and a runny nose. But that doesn't mean you have to worry about death or the spread of the plague to all of humanity, right? Wrong. According to the latest report released by the World Health Organization, the term "biological threat" is no longer a proper term for science fiction movies. Some bacterial families have developed resistance to a variety of antimicrobial agents, including antibiotics, which means that we no longer have the ability to stop them killing people. IX! In order to promote the research and development of new antibiotics, who has released a list of "dirty dozen" bacteria families that pose the greatest threat to human health, and they are listed in medium, high or key priority order. Identify the most dangerous bacteria and how to avoid infection.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and prevention, while some people with Shigella have no symptoms, most people develop diarrhea, fever and stomach cramps. Shigella disease is transmitted through contact with the feces of an infected person, in fact, more often than has been recognized, as tiny particles in the feces may lurk in the hands and on the surface. The moral of the story? Wash your hands frequently. Risk: medium credit: volodymyr shevchuck / Adobe stock. Haemophilus influenzae, ampicillin resistant Since the 1940s, we have relied on antibiotics to eliminate infections quickly and easily. Since then, scientists have developed more than 100 antibiotic compounds, the Los Angeles Times reported. However, bacterial resistance to these drugs has been developing slowly, which is accelerated by routine use of antibiotics in livestock and abuse of antibiotics in humans. All of these produce drug-resistant bacteria, such as Haemophilus influenzae, which, according to the Centers for disease control, are the main cause of infant disease. Risk: medium

you can guess what disease Streptococcus pneumoniae can cause from its name. According to the CDC, people with pneumococcal disease may suffer from "pneumonia (lung infection), ear infections, sinuses infections, meningitis (brain and spinal cord cover infections), and bacteremia (bloodstream infections)." If that doesn't sound serious enough, it's important to know that an estimated 900 people, 1000 Americans a year, suffer from pneumococcal pneumonia, and about 5 to 7 percent die. Between 45000 and 63000 Americans die each year from a disease that becomes more deadly because of drug resistance. Risk: medium

we all participated in sex education. We all know that gonorrhea, although it sounds disgusting, is a sexually transmitted infection that can be cured (and therefore harmless). But that's where we're all so wrong. In the United States, the emergence of gonorrhea, which is resistant to many drugs and cephalosporins, makes treatment extremely difficult. According to CNBC, of the 820000 cases of gonorrhea reported annually in the United States, 246000 are related to drug-resistant strains. If gonorrhea is not treated (or if it cannot be treated because of resistance to existing antibiotics), it can lead to pelvic inflammation, which can lead to infertility or even death. So you can put gonorrhea on your list of reasons why you need to use condoms in your sex life to avoid death. Risk: medium

we have listed it as the next priority of who. If you dare to eat raw eggs as a child, you may hear about our top priority. Salmonella causes Salmonella, a foodborne disease found in eggs, undercooked poultry, ground meat, fruits, peanuts, etc. Often referred to as "food poisoning," many cases of Salmonella pass untreated, according to the CDC. However, of the approximately 1 million diseases caused each year in the United States, 19000 are hospitalized and 380 die. Risk: medium

7. Campylobacter, fluoroquinolone resistant (high) 
Campylobacter causes a foodborne disease, called Campylobacter disease, which sounds disgusting like Salmonella. People with Campylobacter disease develop diarrhea, cramps, abdominal pain and fever, the CDC said. We don't have to say that diarrhea can be bloody and (as described in this way) "accompanied by nausea and vomiting." How do you avoid all this? Well, it's mainly spread through undercooked meat and meat products, as well as raw or contaminated milk, so make sure your meat is fully cooked and strongly consider avoiding raw milk. Risk: medium

you may have never heard of Helicobacter pylori, but it is likely that it already exists in your body. Believe it. According to MEDLINE plus, two-thirds of the world's population has these bacteria, which can cause stomach infections, leading to peptic ulcers and stomach cancer. According to the American Cancer Society, about 10960 Americans died of gastric cancer this year, and the New York Times reported that about 6500 people died of peptic ulcer each year. Although antibiotics can't treat gastric cancer, they are very successful in treating peptic ulcer at present. Risk: high

anyone who has been in the dressing room for a long time may be familiar with these bacteria. In fact, Staphylococcus aureus is not only spread on wet artificial lawns. According to foodsafety.gov, Staphylococcus aureus has been found in about 25% of healthy people. According to MEDLINE plus, Staphylococcus aureus can cause most Staphylococcus infections, including skin infections, pneumonia, food poisoning, etc. Staphylococcus resistanceInfection has become a very important problem in the United States. We even have a household name: methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA). According to the Centers for Disease Control and prevention, about 11285 people die each year from MRSA related diseases in the United States to avoid infection, wash hands frequently, clean and cover open wounds, and avoid sharing items for personal hygiene.

Although vancomycin resistant Enterococcus faecium (VRE) often lives there like their best neighbors, they sometimes cause infections in the urinary tract, blood, and wounds associated with catheterization and surgery. The last point is that most VRE infections occur in hospitals. VRE is not transmitted by air, but by touching the hands of the caregiver or contaminated surfaces. So, if you are a patient, please keep your hands clean. Risk: high Credit: Twenty20 / @ the golden monoclenyc 3. Enterobacteriaceae, carbapenem resistant, ESBL
here, we are in the worst list of who. The superbugs, which are classified as "serious," pose a particular threat to hospitals, sanatoriums and patients who need equipment such as ventilators and blood catheters, who wrote. They can cause serious and even fatal infections, such as blood infection and pneumonia. "They are resistant to most antibiotics, including carbapenems and third-generation cephalosporins, which are the best antibiotics to treat resistant bacteria. So what makes carbapenem resistant Enterobacteriaceae (CRE) so threatening? Although they usually only affect people in medical institutions, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report that "they can cause 50% of deaths from infections." Risk: serious

similarly, Pseudomonas aeruginosa mainly affects people who rely on ventilator, catheter and other equipment in the hospital environment, as well as people who have surgery or burn wounds. Every year, there are about 51000 cases of Pseudomonas aeruginosa related infections in the United States, of which more than 13% (6000 cases) are multi drug resistant, resulting in about 400 deaths.
