son Kevin here he’s two and a half years
son Kevin here he’s two and a half years old and why am i showing you a picture
old and why am i showing you a picture
old and why am i showing you a picture of him I’m showing you his picture
of him I’m showing you his picture
of him I’m showing you his picture because he’s dead he only got to be two
because he’s dead he only got to be two
because he’s dead he only got to be two and a half years old because he ate
and a half years old because he ate
and a half years old because he ate tainted burger and got a coli o157
tainted burger and got a coli o157
tainted burger and got a coli o157 that’s a very dangerous e.coli if it
that’s a very dangerous e.coli if it
that’s a very dangerous e.coli if it gets to your kidney and it did that to

time here it took ten eleven days I’m
time here it took ten eleven days I’m showing you that because sometimes when
showing you that because sometimes when
showing you that because sometimes when we talk about figures numbers 252
we talk about figures numbers 252
we talk about figures numbers 252 million it’s like we forget that behind
million it’s like we forget that behind
million it’s like we forget that behind each of these figures there is actually
each of these figures there is actually
each of these figures there is actually lives and many times there are kids
lives and many times there are kids
lives and many times there are kids especially when we talk about food
especially when we talk about food
especially when we talk about food safety water safety microorganisms it’s
safety water safety microorganisms it’s
safety water safety microorganisms it’s a lot of kids that are affected now the
a lot of kids that are affected now the
a lot of kids that are affected now the problem that I’m going to talk about now
problem that I’m going to talk about now
problem that I’m going to talk about now is a problem that would result in many
is a problem that would result in many
is a problem that would result in many more kids and grown-ups dying in the
more kids and grown-ups dying in the
more kids and grown-ups dying in the future that we cannot treat not only in
future that we cannot treat not only in
future that we cannot treat not only in relation to food or food safety but in
relation to food or food safety but in
relation to food or food safety but in relation to all the microorganisms that
relation to all the microorganisms that
relation to all the microorganisms that we share between each other so I’m
we share between each other so I’m
we share between each other so I’m talking about antibiotics antibiotics
talking about antibiotics antibiotics
talking about antibiotics antibiotics clearly was a blessing they were
clearly was a blessing they were
clearly was a blessing they were invented 75 years ago around 1940 the
invented 75 years ago around 1940 the
invented 75 years ago around 1940 the first one everybody heard about this
first one everybody heard about this
first one everybody heard about this that penicillin was invented by Fleming
that penicillin was invented by Fleming
that penicillin was invented by Fleming or discovered yeah I would say and he
or discovered yeah I would say and he
or discovered yeah I would say and he found out that the penicillin would kill
found out that the penicillin would kill
found out that the penicillin would kill microorganisms bacteria so we’ve used
microorganisms bacteria so we’ve used
microorganisms bacteria so we’ve used that since then and many many millions
that since then and many many millions
that since then and many many millions of lives
of lives
of lives have been saved before that in the pre
have been saved before that in the pre
have been saved before that in the pre antibiotic area era
antibiotic area era
antibiotic area era you would die if you had an infection
you would die if you had an infection
you would die if you had an infection just from a scratch or you have a sore
just from a scratch or you have a sore
just from a scratch or you have a sore throat or something like that
throat or something like that
throat or something like that after that you could actually take
after that you could actually take
after that you could actually take penicillin or other antibiotics we have
penicillin or other antibiotics we have
penicillin or other antibiotics we have maybe 30 different antibiotics now and
maybe 30 different antibiotics now and
maybe 30 different antibiotics now and you will be cured we can even have
you will be cured we can even have
you will be cured we can even have fantastic interventions in our bodies
fantastic interventions in our bodies
fantastic interventions in our bodies you can cut out your heart and put in
you can cut out your heart and put in
you can cut out your heart and put in another one you can only do that because
another one you can only do that because
another one you can only do that because we also give the patient antibiotic when
we also give the patient antibiotic when
we also give the patient antibiotic when the antibiotic works problem is they
the antibiotic works problem is they
the antibiotic works problem is they don’t always work and the way we are
don’t always work and the way we are
don’t always work and the way we are using them will give us a problem in the
using them will give us a problem in the
using them will give us a problem in the future in relation to how it works the
future in relation to how it works the
future in relation to how it works the problem is that in the center of a
problem is that in the center of a
problem is that in the center of a microorganism we have DNA just like in
microorganism we have DNA just like in
microorganism we have DNA just like in any of our cells we have DNA we have
any of our cells we have DNA we have
any of our cells we have DNA we have mutations in DNA if bacteria are being
mutations in DNA if bacteria are being
mutations in DNA if bacteria are being put into an environment with antibiotics
put into an environment with antibiotics
put into an environment with antibiotics some of them will mutate when they
some of them will mutate when they
some of them will mutate when they mutate they will become resistant to the
mutate they will become resistant to the
mutate they will become resistant to the antibiotic meaning suddenly they can
antibiotic meaning suddenly they can
antibiotic meaning suddenly they can live when the antibiotic is there and
live when the antibiotic is there and
live when the antibiotic is there and that means that resistant bacterium will
that means that resistant bacterium will
that means that resistant bacterium will fight back towards the antibiotic and
fight back towards the antibiotic and
fight back towards the antibiotic and suddenly the antibiotic doesn’t work now
suddenly the antibiotic doesn’t work now
suddenly the antibiotic doesn’t work now this is a fantastic description of how
this is a fantastic description of how
this is a fantastic description of how that actually works so this is a lab
that actually works so this is a lab
that actually works so this is a lab Keshawn art from Howard Medical School
Keshawn art from Howard Medical School
Keshawn art from Howard Medical School they put up a big table with medium
they put up a big table with medium
they put up a big table with medium there where you have your way you can
there where you have your way you can
there where you have your way you can grow bacteria and then they put
grow bacteria and then they put
grow bacteria and then they put different concentrations of antibiotics
different concentrations of antibiotics
different concentrations of antibiotics so you can see in the ends that had no
so you can see in the ends that had no
so you can see in the ends that had no antibiotic and into the center they had
antibiotic and into the center they had
antibiotic and into the center they had 1,000 times the antibiotic that they
1,000 times the antibiotic that they
1,000 times the antibiotic that they were using in this case what they did
were using in this case what they did
were using in this case what they did was that they would put bacteria into
was that they would put bacteria into
was that they would put bacteria into the zero path there and when the
the zero path there and when the
the zero path there and when the bacteria starts growing there you will
bacteria starts growing there you will
bacteria starts growing there you will see that the bacteria cannot go across
see that the bacteria cannot go across
see that the bacteria cannot go across the first line where you have the first
the first line where you have the first
the first line where you have the first concentration of antibiotics so you see
concentration of antibiotics so you see
concentration of antibiotics so you see that the bacteria is coming here on each
that the bacteria is coming here on each
that the bacteria is coming here on each side they stop when you have this limit
side they stop when you have this limit
side they stop when you have this limit where you have the first concentration
where you have the first concentration
where you have the first concentration of antibiotics so here you see the fur
of antibiotics so here you see the fur
of antibiotics so here you see the fur mutation that can actually grow in
mutation that can actually grow in
mutation that can actually grow in antibiotic then it grows on and you will
antibiotic then it grows on and you will
antibiotic then it grows on and you will have other mutations coming on you can
have other mutations coming on you can
have other mutations coming on you can see them on both sides and they’re
see them on both sides and they’re
see them on both sides and they’re moving towards the sensor and then they
moving towards the sensor and then they
moving towards the sensor and then they meet the next limit and then they have
meet the next limit and then they have
meet the next limit and then they have to have new changes in their DNA new
to have new changes in their DNA new
to have new changes in their DNA new mutations so that they can actually take
mutations so that they can actually take
mutations so that they can actually take the 10 times antibiotic and move on from
the 10 times antibiotic and move on from
the 10 times antibiotic and move on from there
there
there again they stopped at the net next limit
again they stopped at the net next limit
again they stopped at the net next limit and move on from there so you can see
and move on from there so you can see
and move on from there so you can see here this actually took like 1012 days
here this actually took like 1012 days
here this actually took like 1012 days to film this but you can see how all
to film this but you can see how all
to film this but you can see how all these populations of bacteria they have
these populations of bacteria they have
these populations of bacteria they have the ability to have mutations which
the ability to have mutations which
the ability to have mutations which means that suddenly they can actually
means that suddenly they can actually
means that suddenly they can actually live and thrive even if you have
live and thrive even if you have
live and thrive even if you have antibiotic here you can see the
antibiotic here you can see the
antibiotic here you can see the different mutations that happened and
different mutations that happened and
different mutations that happened and how they spread into the center so this
how they spread into the center so this
how they spread into the center so this is a fantastic illustration of how
is a fantastic illustration of how
is a fantastic illustration of how mutations can actually make bacteria
mutations can actually make bacteria
mutations can actually make bacteria resistant to antibiotic and that is
resistant to antibiotic and that is
resistant to antibiotic and that is happening every time we use antibiotic
happening every time we use antibiotic
happening every time we use antibiotic so I’m talking about a problem that is
so I’m talking about a problem that is
so I’m talking about a problem that is real because we use antibiotic a lot and
real because we use antibiotic a lot and
real because we use antibiotic a lot and it’s a problem that is happening just
it’s a problem that is happening just
it’s a problem that is happening just now and it’s really actually a very big
now and it’s really actually a very big
now and it’s really actually a very big problem I’ll get back to how big it
problem I’ll get back to how big it
problem I’ll get back to how big it really is but one of the reasons I say
really is but one of the reasons I say
really is but one of the reasons I say that it’s a big problem is that just
that it’s a big problem is that just
that it’s a big problem is that just last month the UN General Assembly
last month the UN General Assembly
last month the UN General Assembly actually discussed antibiotic resistance
actually discussed antibiotic resistance
actually discussed antibiotic resistance this is not something that happens every
this is not something that happens every
this is not something that happens every year UN General Assembly is talking
year UN General Assembly is talking
year UN General Assembly is talking about big economical things they
about big economical things they
about big economical things they normally do not talk about health they
normally do not talk about health they
normally do not talk about health they leave that to small minor organizations
leave that to small minor organizations
leave that to small minor organizations like the World Health Organization or
like the World Health Organization or
like the World Health Organization or things like that and normally they
things like that and normally they
things like that and normally they believe that they can take care of it
believe that they can take care of it
believe that they can take care of it but maybe in this case they don’t think
but maybe in this case they don’t think
but maybe in this case they don’t think that they’re doing well I don’t know if
that they’re doing well I don’t know if
that they’re doing well I don’t know if that’s the case the UN General Assembly
that’s the case the UN General Assembly
that’s the case the UN General Assembly actually discussed this just last last
actually discussed this just last last
actually discussed this just last last month so it is a big problem is realized
month so it is a big problem is realized
month so it is a big problem is realized by a lot of countries why is it big 700
by a lot of countries why is it big 700
by a lot of countries why is it big 700 thousand deaths every year from
thousand deaths every year from
thousand deaths every year from resistant anti antibiotic resistant

resistant anti antibiotic resistant bacteria that’s a lot of people
bacteria that’s a lot of people
bacteria that’s a lot of people I can compare to maybe one of the
I can compare to maybe one of the
I can compare to maybe one of the biggest killers that we have is cancer
biggest killers that we have is cancer
biggest killers that we have is cancer cancer is around 7 billion so this is
cancer is around 7 billion so this is
cancer is around 7 billion so this is ten percent of cancer that dies from
ten percent of cancer that dies from
ten percent of cancer that dies from resistant bacteria now how would that
resistant bacteria now how would that
resistant bacteria now how would that compare to what is happening in
compare to what is happening in
compare to what is happening in Singapore if you compare there it’s 500
Singapore if you compare there it’s 500
Singapore if you compare there it’s 500 people every year dying in Singapore
people every year dying in Singapore
people every year dying in Singapore from resistant bacteria compare that to
from resistant bacteria compare that to
from resistant bacteria compare that to how many people die from traffic
how many people die from traffic
how many people die from traffic accidents that’s around 150 so it’s
accidents that’s around 150 so it’s
accidents that’s around 150 so it’s three times more than die from traffic
three times more than die from traffic
three times more than die from traffic accidents so it’s a really big really
accidents so it’s a really big really
accidents so it’s a really big really significant problem and what is even
significant problem and what is even
significant problem and what is even worse if you try to extrapolate the
worse if you try to extrapolate the
worse if you try to extrapolate the development here in relation to that if
development here in relation to that if
development here in relation to that if we don’t do anything apart from what
we don’t do anything apart from what
we don’t do anything apart from what we’re doing now which is very little
we’re doing now which is very little
we’re doing now which is very little then it will grow from 700,000 in 2050
then it will grow from 700,000 in 2050
then it will grow from 700,000 in 2050 it will be 10 million every year dying
it will be 10 million every year dying
it will be 10 million every year dying 10 million so that’s more than die from
10 million so that’s more than die from
10 million so that’s more than die from cancer every year cancer was 7 to 8
cancer every year cancer was 7 to 8
cancer every year cancer was 7 to 8 million this is 10 million from
million this is 10 million from
million this is 10 million from resistant bacteria in the world so it’s
resistant bacteria in the world so it’s
resistant bacteria in the world so it’s a huge problem now where do we actually
a huge problem now where do we actually
a huge problem now where do we actually use the antibiotics because I said that
use the antibiotics because I said that
use the antibiotics because I said that whenever we use antibiotic we also have
whenever we use antibiotic we also have
whenever we use antibiotic we also have the risk that we create resistant
the risk that we create resistant
the risk that we create resistant bacteria so I would like you to vote on

resistance actually it’s not so look at
resistance actually it’s not so look at this picture here you can see that when
this picture here you can see that when
this picture here you can see that when floki Nolan which is one of these 30
floki Nolan which is one of these 30
floki Nolan which is one of these 30 different antibiotics when it was
different antibiotics when it was
different antibiotics when it was approved in the
approved in the
approved in the u.s. in 1986 for the next ten years
u.s. in 1986 for the next ten years
u.s. in 1986 for the next ten years there was no resistance recorded no
there was no resistance recorded no
there was no resistance recorded no resistance at all for ten years they
resistance at all for ten years they
resistance at all for ten years they used it in many many many different
used it in many many many different
used it in many many many different people then they started using it in
people then they started using it in
people then they started using it in poetry and immediately we saw resistance
poetry and immediately we saw resistance
poetry and immediately we saw resistance immediately after that we saw resistance
immediately after that we saw resistance
immediately after that we saw resistance so actually for this antibiotic it was
so actually for this antibiotic it was
so actually for this antibiotic it was worse to use it in animals than in
worse to use it in animals than in
worse to use it in animals than in humans in relation to whether it
humans in relation to whether it
humans in relation to whether it generated antibiotic resistance so it’s
generated antibiotic resistance so it’s
generated antibiotic resistance so it’s not true that the worst is when we use
not true that the worst is when we use
not true that the worst is when we use it in animals so what can we do about it
it in animals so what can we do about it
it in animals so what can we do about it because I’m talking to man Klum and you
because I’m talking to man Klum and you
because I’m talking to man Klum and you know this is a big problem and the world
know this is a big problem and the world
know this is a big problem and the world is gonna go on – no it’s not we can do
is gonna go on – no it’s not we can do
is gonna go on – no it’s not we can do something about it first thing is we
something about it first thing is we
something about it first thing is we need to know how much we use and where
need to know how much we use and where
need to know how much we use and where we use it and most countries don’t look
we use it and most countries don’t look
we use it and most countries don’t look for that at all at the moment we need to
for that at all at the moment we need to
for that at all at the moment we need to induce how much resistance we have and
induce how much resistance we have and
induce how much resistance we have and most countries don’t really look for
most countries don’t really look for
most countries don’t really look for that at all then we need to have
that at all then we need to have
that at all then we need to have regulation about how we use the
regulation about how we use the
regulation about how we use the antibiotics and again most countries
antibiotics and again most countries
antibiotics and again most countries don’t have that regulation at the moment
don’t have that regulation at the moment
don’t have that regulation at the moment and then we need to convince the medical
and then we need to convince the medical
and then we need to convince the medical doctors and the veterinarians who are
doctors and the veterinarians who are
doctors and the veterinarians who are distributing antibiotics that they
distributing antibiotics that they
distributing antibiotics that they should use less and I say this also
should use less and I say this also
should use less and I say this also about veterinarians because in most
about veterinarians because in most
about veterinarians because in most countries veterinarians more than 50% of
countries veterinarians more than 50% of
countries veterinarians more than 50% of what they earn they get by actually
what they earn they get by actually
what they earn they get by actually selling antibiotics they attract dealers
antibiotic dealers 50% of the income how
antibiotic dealers 50% of the income how easy is it going to be to convince the
easy is it going to be to convince the
easy is it going to be to convince the veterinarians that they should use less
veterinarians that they should use less
veterinarians that they should use less antibiotic when 50% of the antrum come

from there how could what can you do
from there how could what can you do about that you can actually ban that you
about that you can actually ban that you
about that you can actually ban that you can say veteran ants are not allowed to
can say veteran ants are not allowed to
can say veteran ants are not allowed to sell antibiotics they’re not allowed to
sell antibiotics they’re not allowed to
sell antibiotics they’re not allowed to deal drugs and that has been done in
deal drugs and that has been done in
deal drugs and that has been done in some countries especially in in
some countries especially in in
some countries especially in in Scandinavia but it’s been done in a few
Scandinavia but it’s been done in a few
Scandinavia but it’s been done in a few countries so it could be done anywhere
countries so it could be done anywhere
countries so it could be done anywhere if you can do it in Denmark you can do
if you can do it in Denmark you can do
if you can do it in Denmark you can do it everywhere
it everywhere
it everywhere and then just everybody also have to
and then just everybody also have to
and then just everybody also have to consider that antibiotics shouldn’t be
consider that antibiotics shouldn’t be
consider that antibiotics shouldn’t be used when we have a virus so if we have
used when we have a virus so if we have
used when we have a virus so if we have common cold
common cold
common cold that’s a virus antibiotic doesn’t work
that’s a virus antibiotic doesn’t work
that’s a virus antibiotic doesn’t work and actually we can get well many times
and actually we can get well many times
and actually we can get well many times without antibiotics last thing I’m going
without antibiotics last thing I’m going
without antibiotics last thing I’m going to tell you now is we also have new
to tell you now is we also have new
to tell you now is we also have new scientific ways of investigating this
scientific ways of investigating this
scientific ways of investigating this problem and something that could
problem and something that could
problem and something that could actually be used so
actually be used so
actually be used so we might not get to these 10 million
we might not get to these 10 million
we might not get to these 10 million deaths every year this is a new system
deaths every year this is a new system
deaths every year this is a new system that we’re working on also here at the
that we’re working on also here at the
that we’re working on also here at the NTU in Singapore together with
NTU in Singapore together with
NTU in Singapore together with scientists 300 Sciences from more than
scientists 300 Sciences from more than
scientists 300 Sciences from more than 50 countries so the idea is that when
50 countries so the idea is that when
50 countries so the idea is that when you have a patient you can actually find
you have a patient you can actually find
you have a patient you can actually find out what is causing the disease in the
out what is causing the disease in the
out what is causing the disease in the patient by doing DNA sequencing so the
patient by doing DNA sequencing so the
patient by doing DNA sequencing so the DNA we have in the middle of us we also
DNA we have in the middle of us we also
DNA we have in the middle of us we also have in the middle of a bacterium so you
have in the middle of a bacterium so you
have in the middle of a bacterium so you sequence that DNA if you do that you can
sequence that DNA if you do that you can
sequence that DNA if you do that you can put that to a database in the cloud that
put that to a database in the cloud that
put that to a database in the cloud that would have and that’s our idea would
would have and that’s our idea would
would have and that’s our idea would have all the DNA of all the
have all the DNA of all the
have all the DNA of all the microorganisms in the world bacteria
microorganisms in the world bacteria
microorganisms in the world bacteria viruses everything if you do that you
viruses everything if you do that you
viruses everything if you do that you would immediately get the answer back
would immediately get the answer back
would immediately get the answer back what what does this DNA tell us what’s
what what does this DNA tell us what’s
what what does this DNA tell us what’s the name of the microorganism and how
the name of the microorganism and how
the name of the microorganism and how can you treat it because resistance is
can you treat it because resistance is
can you treat it because resistance is also in the genes so you would be able
also in the genes so you would be able
also in the genes so you would be able to treat the patient in the right way
to treat the patient in the right way
to treat the patient in the right way and with the right antibiotic at the
and with the right antibiotic at the
and with the right antibiotic at the same time you would have a global
same time you would have a global
same time you would have a global surveillance system where you could
surveillance system where you could
surveillance system where you could follow resistant microorganisms and how
follow resistant microorganisms and how
follow resistant microorganisms and how they move because they move with people
they move because they move with people
they move because they move with people and they move with animals and they move
and they move with animals and they move
and they move with animals and they move with fruit and that would be a fantastic
with fruit and that would be a fantastic
with fruit and that would be a fantastic solution a fantastic global machine that
solution a fantastic global machine that
solution a fantastic global machine that we’re suggesting may be the most
we’re suggesting may be the most
we’re suggesting may be the most fantastic global machines in school or
fantastic global machines in school or
fantastic global machines in school or something like that so we suggest there
something like that so we suggest there
something like that so we suggest there are global solutions but we need to work
are global solutions but we need to work
are global solutions but we need to work globally on them we need to work between
globally on them we need to work between
globally on them we need to work between the countries between scientists in the
the countries between scientists in the
the countries between scientists in the countries to actually do something like
countries to actually do something like
countries to actually do something like this because when we have a global
this because when we have a global
this because when we have a global problem we need to also look at global
problem we need to also look at global
problem we need to also look at global solutions thank you very much
solutions thank you very much
solutions thank you very much [Applause]
