Superbug from India and Pakistan Invading Britain

An antibiotic resistant “superbug” created by something called the New Delhi-Metallo-1 (NDM-1) enzyme (some have called it a gene) has started to cause problems in Britain. Some believe that it could spread worldwide as it is resistant to almost all antibiotics (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1302035/Alert-unbeatable-superbug-spread-worldwide.html?ITO=1490).

According to Lancet, cases have turned up in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. According to other sources, the USA as well (Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Moving From South Asia to US).

New Delhi-Metallo-1 has turned up in various hospitals in the UK. So far, only about 50 cases have been reported in the United Kingdom, but because of its behavior, many are concerned (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/health-10925411).

Some believe that New Delhi-Metallo-1 entered Great Britain from people going to India/Pakistan for low-cost cosmetic surgeries (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1302035/Alert-unbeatable-superbug-spread-worldwide.html?ITO=1490). With modern air travel, however, many ways are possible.

Anyway, what makes New Delhi-Metallo-1 so dangerous is that it may be able to pass into all bacteria. Since it gets inside the bacteria, it is very difficult to treat with antibiotics.

Jesus foretold of a time of pestilences coming, during “the beginning of sorrows” (Matthew 24:7-8). I do not believe that, of itself, New Delhi-Metallo-1 is it, yet. Overtime, it or something similar will become a potent force. Watch (Mark 13).
