A multi-resistant bacterium before the era of antibiotics : the agent of melioidosis
C R Biol. 2023 Aug 31. doi: 10.5802/crbiol.109. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMelioidosis is an infectious, tropical and emerging disease, due to a bacterium of the hydrotelluric environment, Burkholderia pseudomallei, which is considered as a potential biological weapon because of its exceptional resistance and virulence capacities. Its worldwide spread, outside the original endemic foci of Southeast Asia and Australia, is favoured by global warming and the diabetes mellitus pandemic, which is the main predisposing factor.In humans, melioidosis is an opportunistic infection, following professional (rice farmers, soldiers)...

The public health significance of finding autochthonous melioidosis cases in the continental United States
by Alfredo G. Torres
Recently, the pathogen that causes melioidosis,Burkholderia pseudomallei, was found in the Gulf Coast region of Mississippi, United States of America, associated with human cases and as bacteria in the soil of affected areas. Therefore, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has declared the pathogen as endemic in the continental United States for the first time. This viewpoint discusses some issues that the research, public health communities, and government agencies need to address. (Source: PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases)
