Abstract

We, were so preoccupied with whether, or not we could, we did not stop, to think if we should. It's ironic, a fantasy movie. Aptly, describes the medical crisis we face today, I am talking about emerging and antibioticresistant bacterial infections and how to prevent them spread resulting in epidemics and pandemics that can kill 10 million people per year by 2050. We are now facing a mortal enemy that surpasses our own Intelligence. A tiny microorganism that has indeed, brought us to our knees. It has learned from us, adapted to us, and now exploits our genetic vulnerability, with lethal precision. Pharmaceuticals, medical device manufacturers, government and doctors have now started accepted and acknowledging this as a major crisis of 21st Century. Unfortunately, they are offering incentives and financial support to projects and research that may never bring in the miracle cure and save millions of lives as it did in the past. By not guarding the miracle drug as custodians, we allowed antibiotics to, fatten chickens, treat animals, encouraging nurses to use our clinical skill to diagnose illness, prescribe drugs, and chemist to sell antibiotics without the prescription. We have now lost the only drug that helped us fight infections, learn more about our body, make advances in medicine possible, perform surgical procedures, transplant surgery, IVF and, Save millions of people. My mission is to help encourage, members of our profession to, share knowledge, Innovate and develop products, and method to fight infection. My message to members of my profession is to reduce wasted consultations, cost of healthcare, antibiotic abuse and cross infections and help us this war with bugs that we cannot see. I hope to discourage people in power, institutions and pharmaceuticals companies stop this dream of inventing a miracle cure, tests, investigations and talking about boosting immunity knowing the bugs are smarter, stronger and well adapted to survive and think of alternate strategy of integrating innovations to initially identify infected individuals and isolate them to protect humanity.

Biography

Author, doctor, inventor and publisher who worked in acute as staff and associate specialist in acute and intensive paediatric care in internationally respected hospitals in the UK. Special interest “Spreading Superbugs & Emerging Infections”. In 2000, he was appointed to teach nurses to manage infection in pilot nurse-led practice. He raised concern in 2004, about wrong doings and antibiotic abuse and the quality of care offered using protocols by nurse prescribers and practitioners. To protect fellow human for un-ethical medical practice, he collected and compiled a list of common symptoms and developed a simple tool “Maya” to help patients differentiate “Well from Non-Well”.  His created “Dr Maya” using Internet and communication technology to reduce the cultural dependency, cost, medical errors, delay in diagnosis, treatment and antibiotic abuse. His mission is to reduce cross infections with treatment resistant infections by helping doctors initially identify infected individual and isolate them to protect healthcare workers and pandemics.
