- Penicillin changed everything. Infections that had previously killed were suddenly quickly curable. Yet as Maryn McKenna shares in this sobering talk, we've squandered the advantages afforded us by that and later antibiotics. Drug-resistant bacteria mean we're entering a post-antibiotic world - and it won't be pretty. There are, however, things we can do ... if we start right now.

LITERALLY THE ENTIRE WORLD NEEDS TO FREAKING LEARN ABOUT THIS RIGHT NOW! Do not let this scare you, talk to other about it!
Hello I'm from the future and we learned some didn't now we are all dying...
@@paulriversred738 I'm assuming you're referring to the virus. She's talking about antibiotics, which only target bacteria. Although viruses can also develop resistance to synthetic antivirals .. No need to be scared, just use iodine. It kills both bacteria, viruses, and many other microbials and cannot develop resistance.
very true

@@MetallicAddict15that stupid vegan propaganda ain't gonna help no one.
this scares the living crap out of me
thats the purpose, in the end nothing happens to you if you just wash your hands after coming home or before eating something. this is overdramatic
Samasoku This is NOT overdramatic. What she's saying is true. However, nature has it's ways of levelling the playing field, and human beings are a parasite that need dealt with. Simple.
UncleJeebus I could not agree more! Sad but true
ashley beaumont It should.
UncleJeebus nice logic, how about you start with the easiest parasite to get rid of: yourself. And then we can talk about the rest. Calling others a parasite is a good way to not get friends xD
and this "nature deals with it" sentence is utterly retarded, we *are* nature. or at least part of it, and nature itself has no consciousness, what youre saying is overdramatic as well
That was amazing... You could literally hear the passion in her voice, it was very well spoken.
Well, that really was an uplifting speach…
Had to be said by someone... not everything is puppies and rainbows. Can’t bury our heads in the sand or say ‘that’s too depressing to watch’ forever otherwise things will never change.
She did give us something proactive to do to fight this problem. One of the ideas was to boycott meat produced with antibiotics. The best way to do that is to go vegan. That would have so many more benefits. Ending animal ag would also reduce the chances of more zoonotic diseases, epidemics, and pandemics.

I realize that antibiotics support our daily lives this much. And it's amazing that antibiotic resistance happens so quickly. I didn't know that the reckless use of antibiotics is happening in so many different fields so frequently. In the future, I'll have to check if it's antibiotic-free meat when I buy it from the mart.
I actually thought this talk was very good, as a Staff Nurse of over 20yrs, the amount of antibiotics doctors prescribe is enormous, without a second thought. Blood tests before in some cases would be an idea. Well done Maryn !!!!
it takes 6 weeks to see my primary for what i think is skin infection, so i go to urgent care, and the uc doctor takes a swab but it takes 3/4 days to get the results back. so the uc doctor in the meantime, on the day that i arrived and the same day the culture was taken, prescribes cephalexin for what she suspects is a staph infection. this is all before the results of the swab. i think they feel the pressure to prescribe something right then and there because lab tests take so long. how about same day lab tests.
@@red4666 That isn't possible. Bacteria take 24-48 hours to grow, then tested against antibiotics to find out which one works. That doesn't even count the time it takes to ship the sample to the lab

I'm no expert on the topic, but I feel equally as passionate about this as Maryn. Wish people would stop taking antibiotics for things like colds and I wish they didn't put antibiotics in our food.
If we didn't eat food that needs antibiotics, (animals), we could slow this problem to a manageable level
Basically, don't jump to getting antibiotic prescriptions. And be careful, if you for sure know your immune system can efficiently take care of the infection, try to avoid use. Of course this doesn't always apply to the elderly, or the young, or those in immediate need of treatment. It can be very pricy to find non-antibiotic treated vegies, meats etc... So we can always start with building a healthy lifestyle where our immune system would be strong enough to handle the basic infections.
The best way to start is to drastically reduce antibiotic use in livestock. At the same time, we consumers need to expect to pay for our meat and poultry, as reducing antibiotic use will increase production costs.
*pay more
OUTLAW THE MEAT INDUSTRY! We animal rights antinatalist vegans have advocating banning breeding animals for meat for 60 years. I have.
corporate agribusiness charges plenty. Small producers would be better.
Just don't pay for it at all. Go vegan.

Well.... I'm scared shitless. Luckily, my family and i aren't big on taking meds for things like colds, stomach illness and so on. I like to think that that is why i don't get sick as often as my classmates at school or my colleagues at work. I could be wrong though.
Antibiotic resistance is a very scary and real thing we are dealing with. The over prescription of antibiotics and the addition of them into our foods has speed up this problem and only made it worse. Doctors are very cautious and this causes them to over prescribe antibiotic to their patients, even if it is not necessary. When your body is constantly being exposed to antibiotics your immune system will become adapted and the drug will no longer have the same effects as it used to. It's the same thing that happens with over exposure to painkillers. The food industry is not making matters any better, like she stated. There is no need to be adding antibiotics into everything we eat. This is done in order to save the company money and speed up the growth of the animal, but at what cost? People are dying because companies want to make more money than they already do. Young children have suffered from antibiotic resistance and it has to be taken more seriously.Monitoring doctors prescription rates and increasing regulations on antibiotics used in food is a great step. If pharmaceutical companies will not make new antibiotics without incentives, they need incentives and we need to slow the process down.
Sierra Avery Do you want a grade on this summary?
Right...You know. What about the doctor taking a sample of the pathogen(pathobiont) and consulting the microbiologist before making the decision of what antibiotic to give. That could help but slow down the treatment.
Sierra Avery actually it's not your body that becomes immune to the antibiotic. It's not building up a tolerance to something like how you described with pain killers. It's the bacteria themselves that evolve to resist the attack from antibiotics. think of it this way. If you have 1000 bacterial cells maybe 3 of them had a generic mutation that made them immune to getting killed by the antibiotic. If those 3 are allowed to reproduce now you've got a whole bunch that are unaffected by that same treatment.
Antibiotic resistance is only a problem because of our limited understanding of biology. When we understand biology better we could possibly use the process of mutation and natural selection to our advantage....

i was diagnosed with blood poisoning (sepsis) bc of a cyst recently and this made me worried bc this can happen to anyone and i was prescribed 2 different antibiotics to take 6 times a day 😦
This is an exceptionally thought provoking talk.
Actually we are discovering new antibiotics that pathogens can't develop resistance for. Paper in Nature for anyone interested: www.nature.com/nature/journal/v517/n7535/full/nature14098.html
mashkalji9 I recall a mention in this video about how "We give bacteria billions of chances to crack our defenses."
Maybe we've created a good defense for now, but it's not necessarily impervious.
mashkalji9 there are also microbeads and hydro gels "solutions" for removal of the toxins bacteria, like MRSA, secret and this allows macro-phages the ability to remove them. Since the beads are not adding selection factors to the bacteria, resistance is highly unlikel.y
***** You might want to proof read your argument.
mashkalji9 I'm not well read in the life sciences so forgive me if I'm making a fool of myself here. But the group only tested resistance on two strains for 48h. These conditions hardly simulate evolution in reality. I don't think that warrants them to suggest that they've found "antibiotics that are likely to avoid development of resistance"...
It is true that they tested it on two strains only, but these two strains are known for their fast mutation rates and fast adaptation and resistance for new antibiotics. One of them, Staphylococcus aureus, actually is becoming a serious problem since it has been mutating for a long time that hardly anything affects it now, especially in places like hospitals. Since the new antibiotic affects cell wall synthesis, in lipids specifically, it is more difficult for pathogens to resist the antibiotic since fatty acids mutation is is much much harder than proteins. They can't test this antibiotic on all bacteria, but they can start with the toughest, and that was what they did. While this specific antibiotic can be rendered uneffective by pathogens with highly mutative lipids, it is still a step in the right direction.
I'm going to drink more. It will create an alkaline environment so I can resist the bacteria.

Drinking alcohol will not kill bacteria in your system, in fact, it will feed harmful yeast and mold in your body and it's unhealthy in general
Inspiring as a speaker..
Well thought through speech :)
this is my favorite ted talk
Thank you for your speech. After listening to this speech, I hope that the indiscriminate use of antibiotics will decrease a little. It was amazing that livestock and crops also develop resistance to the use of antibiotics. I hope there will be a technical solution to reduce antibiotic resistance soon..
well presented Maryn mckenna well explained. thank you.. one of my favourite subjects
There are other interventions besides prescription antibiotics even if they always worked, the other part of this equation is your own immune system. Why do some ppl get sick when others don’t? Your own immunity, this medical industry only cares about after the fact, nothing about prevention or natural antibacterial antiviral properties like honey, coconut oil, oregano oil etc. Believe me I understand the enormity of her point-I’m a nurse, but it’s not the end of the world.
I agree with her on many points expect creating barriers for patients with time sensitive infections. Antibiotics are for use, and we should continue to develop more.

The good news for anyone feeling seriously depressed by this video:
We can invent pharmaceuticals that are better than antibiotics, because we now understand the genetic information and chemical composition of bacteria, and we're developing treatments that can target these factors in a way that doesn't allow for a resistance to be accumulated.
Evolution doesn't create perfect solutions to problems because it relies heavily on chance mutations that may never happen. Technology is better than random chance.
InternetReviewerGuy Example? And don't drop the nanite crap.
www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/01/150108124854.htm
Ah, the Teixobactin thing. Yes, they were not able to raise resistance in multi-resistent strains. But, by no means, this implies that they can't build up resistance from a technical stand point.
The mechanism of Teixobactin is a bit trickier to circumvent for the bacteria, as it targets "highly conserved motifs" in enzymes that are part of the cell wall synthesis. Highly conserved means, the proteins code is encoded not once but multiple times in the genome, so there have to be multiple mutations at once that lead to resistant proteins for the bacterium ending up with enough working enzymes to survive the exposure to Teixobactin during their proliferation. Or they simply produce an enzyme that degrades the antibiotic, as it is the case in about half of the resistant bacteria relevant in hospitals. Also, non-proliferating bacteria survive treatment with most types of antibiotics, like this one. They just have to wait for the storm to calm.
I just hope they will regulate the use of Teixobactin. Because if they don't and they let the multi-resistent bacteria regularly come in contact with low doses of Teixobactin (like, wrong prescription, lacking patient complience etc.) them critters can and will build up resistance. It might take a bit longer when compared to most other antibiotics, but it will happen nonetheless. Bacteria like to share information. They license their genome under creative common.
InternetReviewerGuy And we could get nanobots to continually monitor the body and deliver the proper drugs to affected areas earlier...but that's probably later in the future
That is correct buddy. But how about in the meantime, we avoid consuming animal products as much as possible. Veganism is no longer a diet of preachy hippies that want to "tell you what to eat and bypass your personal choices", it is a moral obligation. Your comment was 4 years ago, now is 2020 and we are worse I believe right? Or are SARS, MERS and COVID-19 all derived from broccoli?
I was infected with Strep Throat. I know how it, for the lack of a better word, 'fucked' me up, and it was antibiotics that saved me.

Hello I'm from the future and it's no better we are all dying now..

We r fckn SCREWED
Gripping presentation-- I knew this was a major existential risk, but I never allowed it to sink until this talk.
..y7 ʜʜ
The speaker's delivery is exceptional. Great mix of passionate (but reasonable) alarmism and a calming, hushed timbre to the voice.
It would have been 700,000 + 1 last year, when I thought I was having a heart attack due to a kidney infection gone systemic. I was in the hospital for 3 days on IV antibiotics because 1 I try to let my body fight it naturally, but that memory is still fresh.
Never never play with UTIs. You can die from a subsequent kidney infection
This is tragic. What can we do to combat these drug-resistant infections? We do not want to go back to those terrifying statistics. Prescriptions should not be given unless absolutely necessary. This goes with what Alexander Fleming said after his discovery of penicillin.
Anybody heard of Bacteriophages?
Yeah, that is still in the pipeline as well as transplants of the human microbiome sites from healthy to ill individuals - in toads it delays the onset of disease from a study by Mckenzie et al. 2011, ISME journal. Pretty cool!
Yeah, too bad the United States won’t consider researching phage therapy. Too much money in antibiotics.
ipath.ucsd.edu
yeah, i am using it for my chronic infection,antibiotics were resistant for me. My reports are getting better
In short, we're fucked in any possible way.
I have a resistant UTI caused by a Klebsiella Pneumoniea bacteria. I have now almost had it a year and it makes my life a misery.
How are you now?
And this was 4 years back, imagine the numbers of deaths now 😅
....yes ppl r dying of infections that they have no medicine for..
I recognize the impact of this however what about the new technologies that are being developed. One of the most promising that I have researched is phages. Although they are more difficult to produce they can have a much greater impact and could theoretically treat a larger range of diseases than traditional antibiotics. This is only one of the new developments there are many more that can fix this tragic problem.
When did i ask?
Hello I'm from the future and it's no better we are all dying now..
I love her presentation.
Honestly, i've viewed most "medical science" as consistently developing new theories, not rules as they are presented. The silliness is that people have faith that whatever a doctor says is going to be better than other options. It's simply untrue.
My god this delivery is painful. Important topic but the alarmist/condescending tone of voice is overblown, overwrought and painful.
Mister F Ya, it made me feel like barfing. Plus I didn't like how she said, "because they (antibiotics) didn't exist yet", when of course antibiotics did exist but had not yet been discovered by man.
+celticslimjim ok, now youre just being way too nitpicky
+Mister F - Overblown, overwrought & painful because people don't get it. Ask, what it it going to take? Any ideas?
I agree. It's common in TED presentations. Drives me batty.
It's just a technique of speech
This is why we shouldn't leave medicine development to private corporations
Nothing's preventing governments from starting their own initiatives - the point she's bringing up is that mutations are coming in faster than we can handle.
Anyone here while coronavirus’ resistance to drugs is taking over?
stoplookthink.com
Wonderful talk, it scared the life out of me! Shocked that antibiotics are given to Apples and pears.
Disappointed she didn't mention bacteriophage, the virus that specifically hunts bacteria 🦠 and cannot harm human/animal/plant cells
yeah, the phage is constantly evolving too to crack the bacteria, in doing so, the bacteria has to give up some of it's resistance to antibiotics
"We could" like geez, yeah I guess "we could" do a whole bunch of stuff. This was basically a standard news article saying "hey there exists multi-resistant bacteria".
Nobody i mean r u saying she is wrong
wtf is your point
Grants, higher prices, gate-keeping, incentives... More power to companies who aren't working to save lives because it's not profitable. I'm all for fighting against AB resistance, but this talk raises many red flags
nachoijp Yes, let's develop a new antibiotic. We like people, so we will develop it for free and sell it for the production costs. Now wait, we need about 50 people working for 4 years, the material costs, then the clinical trials... Yes, they will all have to work for free, even the poor bastards risking their health to test the side effects. Because everyone of those people is a philanthrope. But guess what: You can be as friendly as you want, you still have to pay your debts, need a dwelling and something to eat.
You can't even imagine how costly it is to develop drugs. The manpower is the one thing that has to be paid, but the most expensive part is the material you are working with.
TheAnnoyingGunner I don't mean they should do it fro free, of course not, and I understand how expensive is to develop new drugs. But the particular emphasis she places on that aspect, without making any point beyond that. And putting gate-keeping, surveillance and control of AB in the hands of the very same companies that profit from them is really shady.
By all means lets give companies incentives to invest in medical research, but making it exclusively a business without looking at the human part of the matter is extremely dangerous. Just look at how that worked for the military complex and private prisons, profit alone in that kind of business is a recipe for abuse.
her sharp breaths every 10 seconds makes this so hard to watch
to summarise: we are all going to fucking die.
Were just gonna die faster!
I've only used antibiotics a handful of times. In fact, I don't even think I've used them in the last 6 months, aside from someone iodine when I was getting stitches.
what about the animals you were eating?
And why did we rely so much on antibiotics the first time, after all, we werent disigned to live on them
Bacteriophages, probiotics & genetically modified bacteria - those are the future of fighting infections. Ever heard of those?
Shalini Pabreja genetically-modified bacteria: because nothing could possibly go wrong.
UncleJeebus Stepping outside today. Nothing could go wrong. Take your ignorance elsewhere unless you're willing to actually explain your point and not just nay say successful, proven technologies.

Trouble is that this clown and her Big Pharma buddies won't use silver because they class it as a nutrient....NO MONEY IN IT as it costs about a penny a gallon to make!!!
This is by far the worse and most scary thing I’ve heard that is actually going to happen and is not just some distant reality. I’m extremely depressed right now. We can only hope something can be done in time.
It's pretty simple tbh...People are lazy it's easier to pump your body full of meds then it is to take responsibility for your lifestyle choices examples food choices and how active you are.
I'd pay to see a dialog between this woman and George Carlin
The answer to this problem is Bacteriophage! Which is the concept of using viruses to "prey" on bacteria. But you would have to consider the possibilities of having the same resistance developing problems from the bacteria, plus having to control any possibility for virus mutation!
Just one word.
GOOD
well said
ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ 휴 영어 치느라 힘들었네
Translate: hahahahaha I struggled to say that four word.(I don't know my grammer is right...)
The mutations are random, the bacteria will "develop" its resistance to the antibiotics randomly. These mutations would happen with or without the antibiotics. The difference is that at the end it would only be resistant outspread. If you don't use "too much" antibiotics it would not prevent these mutations, it would only give you the resistant ones in the middle of not resistant ones. Like, less percentage, but the same quantity. It doesn't matter if you kill the week or not, the strong will still be born, randomly.
Another home run Maryn McKenna , thank you!
I have a question for you. Last week I had a tooth infection they gave me one bottle of Antibiotics for 10 days. Those are finished.

Bacteriophages are an upcoming alternatives of antibiotic resistance bacteria. I am personally using bacteriophages for my chronic infection and my reports are getting better. Most of us dont have knowledge of bacteriophages as it is confined to Russia and Georgia area and yeah after ww2 antibiotic paced up due to its broad spectrum effect
For anyone scared i have news for you. Anitbiotics of some sort, will always work to a degree. The cdc says peroxide is a good way to kill a wide variety of bacteria AND viruses. For your information, honey, when digested, metabolizes into peroxide in the body. Also did you know that low voltages of electricity has also shown high lethality rates to bacteria and viruses? What about ultra sound? Did you know that everything including bacteria and viruses resonate at their own frequency? The right frequecy will disolve a bacteria like it was never even there lol. Dont be scared be informed. Fear does nothing. We can do anything.
A few drops of hydrogen peroxide will kill an ear infection
Big brother solutions... What about non-chemical solutions? Granted we are no where near there, but plenty of hope left without sitting there and lobbying for mass surveillance programs on who gets antibiotics.

I know this video is 2 years old, so I realize the woman hasn't heard of the work of Miss Shu Lam at the University of Melbourne, who has developed star polymers with a kill rate of 100% and no resistance noted.

I have a skin infection since 4 months, doctors prescribed me various antibiotics courses,
In the end, all treatment just goes to waste. I don't know what to do anymore 😔.
Apply iodine topically. Lugol's iodine solution or povidone. Just be sure it's a skin infection and not an autoimmune rash like psoriasis or eczema, treating that requires additional steps.
In a lot of countries in the world antibiotics are used much more elaborately than others. Drug-resistant bacteria are a result of overuse of antibiotics. These days often antibiotics are prescribed even when the cause of the infection may be a viral infection. Antibiotics only work against bacteria so taking antibiotics for a viral infection is ridiculous. Often people end up in hospital demanding antibiotics and doctors giving in afraid of getting sued.
In the hospital I work in, today a ward has been closed off due to a resistant MRSA bacterium (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus).
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methicillin-resistant_Staphylococcus_aureus
.
lactobacillusprime It's crazy that doctors just prescribe them willy nilly. Also in Hollywood movies they will always talk about antibiotics even when the plot point is the outbreak of a crazy virus. They get it wrong all the time, and it's not like that stuff is hard to learn.
lactobacillusprime Instead of throwing antibiotics into everything, I'd be pleased to see people desinfect their hands before entering the hospital. And a desinfectant dispenser at the entrance. I haven't encountered either of them very often.

Let's look at this forecast that 10M people per year might die of infections in a post-antibiotic era. About 7000 million people worldwide, so that would be about 1 in 700 per year, so every 10 years about 1 in every 70 persons you know will have died from an untreatable infection. Of course, I can't vouch for how accurate the initial forecast is, or for how representative any one person's social circle is of the world in general in terms of risk of infection.
It's not evolution. It's adaptation. Those drug-resistance bacteria are still bacteria, though stronger.
Otan Er its evolution. the resistance genes are produced by mutation
they are expressed through adaptation.
Please, do not use antibiotics abusively.
Look into Cannabinoid Antibiotics. I stumbled upon this research and I'm not saying it's the answer. It's worth looking into as far as existing research, that might not have the attention it deserves.
How a multi-antibiotic pill saved me: I had a cold, and when it cleared, there was residue bacteria which made my tongue swell up and made it feel like my throat was being cut by razor blades every time I tried to swallow.
My internist didn't take this seriously. I traveled quite a distance to get to a former dentist. This dentist sent me down the street to an oral surgeon. The oral surgeon knew enough to give me some fat pills. In a few days, the swelling in my tongue went down. I could swallow without pain. Thanks to these fat pills of multi-target antibiotics.
Now what would have happened to me if I had resistance to these pills? Would my tongue keep swelling up? Would I no longer be able to swallow or take air into my lungs? Would I have died?
All this happened to my on a beautiful June weekend in Chicago--not a third world country.
