Drug-Resistant ‘Super Bug’ Hits LA County Hospitals, Nursing Homes

Bible prophecy informs us that many people will unfortunately perish during the dark days of the coming Tribulation period.  The first 4 seals of Revelation 6 indicate that in quick succession, wars will break out leading to food shortages and famines, with disease and pestilence finishing off many millions of people.

This news article, while short, is quite disconcerting.  One particular part of the article notes that there has been a complete collapse in the development of new antibiotics in the last decade.  Consider how this may effect future populations that would be under great distress because of famines, plagues and disease.  There may be little or no means of protecting these populations from the effects of the diseases due to a serious lack of new antibiotics. 


When the Lamb opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, “Come!” I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth. Revelation 6:7-8 NIV

From the news article:
A deadly drug-resistant bacteria is spreading to more patients in nursing and long-term care facilities in Los Angeles County, according to local health officials.  Dr. Brad Spellberg, an infectious disease expert at Harbor UCLA Medical Center says there is no current teatment for CRKP bacteria — and there might not be any in the future either.  “There’s been a complete collapse in the development of new antibiotics over the last decade…and in the next decade there isn’t going to be anything that becomes available that’s going to be able to treat these bacteria,” said Spellberg.
