The Search for New Antibiotics Under the Sea

[@JohnsArchipelago]

These are the types of videos that need to blow up on the internet

[@yungsloth8336]

fucking exactly

[@dtdw1988]

nobody gives a shit about antibiotics drugs resistance. until it hits home.

[@yungsloth8336]

david tan True, pretty shitty how society rarely prepares for a problem rather than just responding to an immediate problem

[@fx1738]

but most kids on yt rather watch ksi and pewdiepie 😥

[@charliepouliot8529]

It's like when Kennedy was shot, the big lobbyists dont want the truth out

[@hohosims5432]

thank you motherboard for putting a good documentary, please continue this standard

[@WolfGrin86]

This guy deserve more attention, modern day real hero.

[@warmccl]

I have blepharitis. An incurable but common infection caused by either staphalococcus, melasazzia, or meibomian gland dysfunction. They can't find a cure for something that should be curable because they don't want to try hard enough. Since it's so common big pharma would lose money if they found a cure. They want people to continue suffering. War and disease is very profitable.

[@nicksmith6629]

+warmccl because they dont focus on curing diseases, just the symptoms. its not really the fact they arent trying hard enough, its that they arent even trying.

[@nicksmith6629]

***** yup. they are paid to push psychotropic meds as well, not just pain meds. meds are now the leading cause of overdose and rehab.

[@rarepepe9166]

M O N E Y

[@ismoketwojointsbeforeismok5882]

I have psoriasis. Incredibly common. Yet nobody is even completely sure of what causes it or how it comes about. Theres not much known about it besides that it’s an overgrowth of skin and how to treat it but no cure. Usually it’s something a person will have for life.

[@lechsiz1642]

"they" are at fault for *your* health? wow. glad i don't have to work or live with you. the blame game is not how one improves her life.

[@KnolltopFarms]

That Scientist was a Bad Ass!!! He looked like some old tough as nails scientist/surfer dude, LOL. Crabby old man on a cold morning at the pier yelling "Get off of my wave you little whipper-snapper, I'll be giving you an "F" in Bio Chemistry if you even think of stealing my sweet waves!"

[@MalaysianTropikfusion]

LOL ^.^

[@pizzamasterf5]

probably not but we get gisy

[@MrTigerlore]

...And we're just gonna ruin them on cows.

[@JuusoAlasuutari]

That is if we have enough time to develop these new antibiotics before we ruin the oceans.

[@tossigetotte12]

+Juuso Alasuutari And then we pump antibiotics into the water of prawn farms which just seems like trying to ruin the oceans.

[@jblazingame]

+Tiger H. Lore I'm a staunch conservative, usually completely against government regulation. However, I think we should ban the use of antibiotics in farm animals, and consider stricter rules on when antibiotics can be used in humans. Rather they die than us. And we have to get other nations to join in with us. Colistin resistant bacteria found in China- of course- they were pumping pigs full of the stuff.

[@LittleRainGames]

These resistent strains are actually coming from farms. Not from us humans taking them, i think vice has a video of it in india.

[@boshamburger123]

+jblazingame I consider myself relatively conservative as well but government regulation is absolutely crucial, as shown in situation you mentioned as well 1000s of other cases. This is what government regulations should be used for protecting their people

[@jaypatton217]

Damn all the comments are from like 2-4 years ago. No one else is watching this in 2020 during the COVID pandemic??

[@SCIFIaction]

Someone needs to build a company around finding and creating antibiotics, giving funding to people like him and the students he's involved with

[@eden7010]

SCIFIaction Not a company, a charity

[@samanthav]

And look at us now. 4 years later and in the midst of a global pandemic.

[@christianjohannes8871]

Well, this aged well

[@ericspace121]

William I'm going to give you one of the many thanks you truly deserve. Thank you for pursuing the solution to a threat the general population is idiotically ignoring.

[@lmeza1983]

general population is idiotically ignoring EVERYTHING that matters, thats how the big machine is still rolling....

[@bigmonmatt]

Ohhhh congress....

[@bookdream]

+sr20det They never fail to disappoint

[@sebastianhenshaw2766]

great educational non bias video!!! thanks

[@grail68]

He is literally a hero.

[@eternalroamer4809]

Its not about healing, its about prevention. Humans will need to start practice living more ecological and healhty lifestyes. Quality of water, air, food, etc. all this effect someones health and vitality.

[@MultiAblee]

this dude is like the coolest most badass scientist that ever lived.

[@HireDeLune]

rip

[@andrewklein7997]

This man is literally a life saver

[@tngchinghwa]

what if the snapper hits a fish? its just gonna retrieve fish from the sea, lol "Guys, seem like we have caught our dinner."

[@Samsaraslug]

This was really good....

[@kotodamamidnight412]

wow. just wow.

[@BoStanfordify]

I am dealing with a foot infecion I got swimming in the Phillipines. It's been a month and still on antibiotics. It's taking so long. I wonder if that's why...

[@ItchyKneeSon]

Because we've expended our resources on land, we run to the oceans. How long until the oceans' effective antibiotics discoveries run out? What then? Space?

[@homerjay1385]

Nanobots helping the immune system

[@natureswrath7665]

Yes actually we have been testing with that for a long time now.

[@craigterris1802]

biology student here how do i go into drug discovery? it looks sick.

[@GSD-]

Vice is so freeking dramatic 😂😂😂😂

[@lachlantaylor1225]

JUST EDUCATE PEOPLE ABOUT TAKING ANTIBIOTICS UNTIL THE *END OF THEIR CYCLE*

[@lechsiz1642]

why not educate them *first* on how to keep a strong immune system? that is the line of first attack.

[@jonathonhang]

This is nature fighting humans back. All this pollution in the earth is coming back around.

[@BLUEGENE13]

the fact actually is that we have lots of compounds that are highly effective against things like MRSA but they aren't FDA approved, and the FDA is just taking so long because of all their regulations and all the money it costs.

[@ValhallaMovement]

Wow this is scary...

[@thecoolman1234able]

I've had pneumonia for 6 years every year in a row now i believe i will die from it when i get older im always using antibiotics

[@anirbanpatra3017]

This old man is great

[@amidhmi5243]

6:12 Keep calm and wear your PPE, why doesn't he?

[@jimboburgess42069]

antibioctics are one thing but what about also working to make our immune systems stronger?

[@eden7010]

What about bacteriophages though?

[@maxp9292]

Motherboard is like a more serious VICE without as much drugs

[@alexanderblechschmidt6206]

what if one day the same shit happens with the stuff out of the ocean? inst it only a matter of time till it become the same problem?

[@devinptacek9122]

you should check the amazon and the congo rain forest

[@randomgladospotatogaming4724]

5:44 look guys its GTA

[@josephvintuks7183]

What did motherboard use to edit this video??

[@dzaesonp8599]

why not use bateriophages?

[@Calallal]

I'm massively concerned about miss use of antibiotics for humans, but also animals. a lot of farms inject their animals with antibiotics, just so they don't get sick, to increase their profit, by having less animals die or become ill. please consider the food you eat before infectious diseases are able to spread from animals to humans. Oh wait! too late... its already happened

[@ASickCoAsikoE]

Genius!

[@SinanTuran17]

name of music at 0:50 please?

[@SinanTuran17]

nice 1

[@mrgarland5210]

once upon a time a simple cut could kill you not from blood loss but infection. Now with the start of the rule of MSRA we, as a species, will return to a time like that but you know whats gunna happen, not enough people are going to work on finding new anti-boitics until it's too late.

[@colbydauphinais9240]

Nice Shirt Man

[@samatarahmed3706]

I was wondering...

[@socialweedia]

what a ledge

[@waltermarlin1730]

Can hydrogen peroxide be used in the body without poisoning? Anthracimycin just looks like a complex hydrogen peroxide molecule.

[@Jay94Gee]

Perhaps things like this in addition with others keep the growing population rate down slightly so the Government prefer to not bother..

[@changoTCL]

Isn't this the backstory to Cloverfield?

[@888888dude]

Sure seems like the free market isn't working in this case.

[@ItsRyanStudios]

I don't see how finding new antibiotics will solve the problem. Won't viruses/ bacteria develop resistance to these new compounds and render them ineffective just as is happening now?

[@yakuone3066]

good point. new drugs are stupid lets just keep using the same old shitty ones

[@mattatk92]

i got bacteria behind my right eye from the hospital and now i cant see. we need new meds

[@kilimangan]

what xD

[@spiker2014]

This is so fucking scary.

[@saintofchelseathomascarlyl5713]

i wish i knew enough to work in this bio tech stuff my biology and chemistry are alright but math and physics killed me :

[@jarheadv7532]

Yay

[@larmalai5971]

hg

[@themrjones]

scary as hell. God's way of thinning us out.

[@ivan-ih7vt]

God damnit I'm scared

[@jblazingame]

Finally a video I wanted to click on

[@thepablyko]

United States of Let´s Waste Money on Wars

[@brandonnesfan]

+thepablyko You do realise they profit off wars?

[@brandonnesfan]

Deborah Meltrozo Your point is?

[@brandonnesfan]

Deborah Meltrozo I know that. What did you mean by "they, not you"? I'm confuded by your correction.

[@brandonnesfan]

+Deborah Meltrozo For fuck sake. Did you even fucking bother to read my comment before you post?

[@brandonnesfan]

Deborah Meltrozo Bullshit.

[@Mr3344555]

what I do when I'm sick, is I scream my illness away. I had SARS, I locked myself in my room and screamed GANG GANG GANG GANG GANG for 72 days non stop. I became malnourished and extremely dehydrated. I lost 50 lbs. but I survived SARS. thanGANG

[@Moistened_Ewok]

+Mr3344555 nigga what....?

[@VincentGonzalezVeg]

so are people like this astronaut leved great but with the added plus of less suffering for their exploration?

[@Schatten2712]

Discovers a drug capable of raping vancomycin resistant S. aureus? well done, well fucking done indeed. Takes hat off for this guy

[@eddymancilla872]

we just got served.

[@tibbs1990]

Could nanobots be used to fight bacterial infections? they be programmed to have a database of bacterial infections, viruses and cancers that they would automatically destroy.

[@lmeza1983]

hahahaha easier said than done buddy, first try to program your data base and tell us how is working out for you.

[@ismoketwojointsbeforeismok5882]

Luis Fernando Don’t forget, that could go horribly wrong. Nano bot could end up killing us instead

[@reflection2521]

Bacteriophage cultivate them and use them in American hospitals there is a documentary

[@Clebbitron]

Cause we should just use bacteriophages

[@me5ng3]

Do they have a bank account so that we can donate? :)

[@ECsponger2]

I knew this dude was a surfer. Salt water cures all, and keeps you young

[@42ndWolfPack]

Only 27k well its ok the earth has what 7 billion people bordering into 8 billion.

[@photonic1970]

> 9:10 min. the crux of this video i think. :(

[@lolzorsPwnage]

It's literally the doctors and peoples faults, the doctors prescribe this shit like candy. You see all the doctors in the documentary dancing around it.

[@CoCody_]

it's me

[@vaas7479]

Hello

[@Ravello1111111111111111111]

you never did tell me the definition of insanity

[@xXbudred123Xx]

What happens when these are ruined? Are we just fucked then?

[@skillerftwerr]

+budred123 - Bernie Sanders FTW - We could be more responsible and not over use them. They should last awhile that way.... but after that who knows

[@xXbudred123Xx]

skillerftwerr I don't hear any plans to do that though.

[@yakuone3066]

space. use your brain fucking idiot

[@xXbudred123Xx]

Yaku One There's no bacteria in space, at least nowhere near us.

[@hillarycantwinontheissues4570]

Lol this shit freaks me out. We're all gonna die.

[@TheBirdyyeses]

Simple solution: only consume antibiotic-free meat/dairy/eggs, or better yet, eliminate meat/dairy/eggs.

[@shelbycombs8987]

Not me watching this post pandemic

[@plum_pie6402]

who searches for antiobioticals under the sea? random scientist

[@thewok6808]

He was off 1 year for a pandemic

[@lowercase21]

When our world is run by the rich and not the smart.

[@CaliKing415]

who unlikes this video?

[@user-jt5cv5hg3n]

Lol he's laughing today, corona taken over the world

[@lunanarda]

Tbh😅

[@detrolfire]

Why invest on health care when we should be investing on military weapons so that we can defend ourselves from the aliens :l, sarcasm

[@mikediesel7125]

Go to another country. Germany, New Zealand exc. move to places where they actually care about the citizens more.

[@bananana25]

united states of antibiotics

[@FluXxxie]

easy. people need to stop being a living thing and become like robots instead. no life span, no disease no pain no hunger nothing. we need to evolve already

[@ksam2000]

:( sad

[@Nereus00]

how could he isolate so many compounds with a pharmacology effect, i call it bullshit. yes anticancer in his opinion ahah you need a strict test regiment to define a drug anticancer.

[@BalisoZero]

just legalise weed problem done!

[@NaffiAxx]

are you serious?

[@ryangesselli3600]

have lyme disease, antibiotics have done nothing.

[@aphixe]

Simple answer to fix world problems. Stop GMO's and eat real food. Wow so hard, but they want to make money, so yay chemicals.

[@OOG369]

Smoke weed everyday

[@Butane-lj6tr]

Ah...capitalism...
