Relentless and alarming scientific research, and a succession of sensational newspaper articles on multi-resistant bacteria have reached a climax. Academic and political concern for the consequences of multi-resistant bacteria on people’s health is increasing. Worst of all, there appears to be an absence of effective ways to counter superbugs, which are resisting even the strongest of super-antibiotics. “If scientists call it the ‘ post-antibiotic era or antibiotic apocalypse’ t he alert level must be raised and everything possible must be done immediately. ” said Alberto Rodolfi, President of Copma.
Writing last month in ‘The Lancet’ medical journal, David Paterson and Patrick Harris from Australia’s University of Queensland, say that a new critical era has arrived for the use of anti-biotics in veterinary and human health.
“Can superbacteria be defeated? Let’s try” says Mario Pinca of Copma, “There is evidence that cannot be ignored.”
