Chile se convierte en el primer país de las Américas verificado por la OMS por eliminar la lepra El representante de OPS/OMS en Chile, Giovanni Escalante, y la ministra de Salud de Chile, Ximena Aguilera, durante la ceremonia de reconocimiento de la eliminación de la lepra, realizada en Santiago de Chile.

Chile es el segundo país del mundo, tras Jordania, en eliminar la lepra.

Un hito que subraya el papel de las políticas públicas, la detección precoz y el acceso universal a la atención sanitaria.

Chile becomes the first country in the Americas to be verified by WHO for the elimination of leprosy WHO, together with the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO), congratulates Chile for becoming the first country in the Americas – and the second globally – to be officially verified as having eliminated leprosy disease.

Congratulations Chile! It is the first country in the Americas to be verified by @WHO as having eliminated #leprosy.

More than 30 years without locally acquired cases reflect sustained surveillance, early diagnosis and access to treatment.

Researchers find antibiotic-resistant bacteria from 5,000 years ago A strain of bacteria found in a Romanian ice cave is resistant to ten modern antibiotics, according to a new study.

A bacterial strain recovered from deep ice (25 m) in Romania’s Scărișoara Ice Cave shows resistance to 10 antibiotic classes despite its ancient origin.

A reminder that #AntimicrobialResistance can evolve naturally in the environment.
