How do we combat antibiotic resistance?| Dag Berild | TEDxArendal

Antibiotic resistance is rampant in the world, and we are moving towards dark ages when it comes to curing something as simple as a cut or a wound. Hear one of the leading experts in the field of resistance talk about what the problem is, how we can handle it and what human kind should do to protect one of our most valuable discoveries - Antibiotics.
Dag Berild is a professor and a senior consultant in infectious diseases at both the University of Oslo and Oslo University College. Berild’s research concerns the rational use of antibiotics and his aim is to prevent antibiotic resistance, and to strengthen doctors’ knowledge on antibiotics so that they in turn can improve antibiotic use and reduce this resistance. He has conducted several intervention studies to improve antibiotic use both in Norway and in Russia, and also heads the Study Group for rational antibiotic and trough his day-to-day work. In this talk he will explain why this matters, and paint a scary picture of a world without a cure if we do not start to adjust our thinking now.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

[@swatmankiller]

[@mayanksangam9205]

That was beautifully explained

[@iqralone9785]

My question is if not to use antibiotic than how can we treat any bacterial infection,os there any alternative?

[@immadisarojini2775]

Nice

[@jackiesantangelo6610]

It's just a word, what is the point of giving it so much power? It's true, also.

[@FlashManinSpace]

Please amend the title. Now!

[@KatBuckleyXOX]

[@Kevi_N.]

Is it really a proper title for supposed scientific presentation ?

[@bakers36]

Kevi N. Yes!

[@SonuSingh-xz9mw]

I am seeing another pandemic due resistance bacteria 😥

[@Ana-bw7gm]

They are not talking about it because people get those bacteria in hospitals.

[@youtubeuser4400]

Abb busssdd

[@Ana-bw7gm]

Overuse and abuse of antibiotics on animals should be banned. Also, it is obvious that pharmaceutical companies should be nationalized and work for the good of all rather than for profits. That seem to be the only way. You may not prescribe antibiotics to people to reduce the superbugs but those bacteria are in hospitals, in all their equipment. That is where many people get those superbugs. Not prescribing antibiotics is not going to solve a problem.

[@daxxonjabiru428]

Sign me up ... ;-)

[@MichaelDeeringMHC]

There's nothing wrong with the title. Quit being so stuck up.

[@nneichan9353]

profit driven medicine is really a bad idea.

[@juanespinoza9219]

Let's send this guy to take down Trump. lol. "Sir, we require your services." Still, I feel like Trump will most likely decline to even meet with anyone in any science field regarding anything about real science.

[@muhammadel-dharrat961]

click bating for ted videos, think this is an all time low

[@tahahammuda1641]

You could have come with more catchy title without using the F word, We understand the magnitude of the topic but your title is totally inappropriate and grammatically incorrect.

[@Funeral-VI]

The title is a quote from the video. Watch it.

[@gglasser8375]

It always amuses me when people make grammatical errors when writing comments referencing grammar. On another note, grammar is irrelevant in a title. Lastly, the sentence "If you fuck with nature, nature fucks you back", is grammatically sound.

[@tahahammuda1641]

Thank you for correcting may grammar mistake, however, if I had committed a grammar mistake, I am just commenting, the editor and the creator of this video ,on the other hand, had poorly chosen words for representing an urgent problem that facing humanity .

[@swatmankiller]

what a title!
