suggests that antibiotic resistance increases may have something to do with air pollution. While the study does not show causal evidence, it indicates a strengthening relationship between air pollution and antibiotic resistance across the globe over the course of 18 years.Researchers have long suspected that particulate pollution could carry drug-resistant bacteria—and genes—from farms, hospitals and sewage treatment facilities into the air, where they can be inhaled by people.
The researchers estimate that cutting these types of emissions down to the World Health Organization's target levels by 2050 would cut global antibiotic resistance by almost 17%.How it's possible for a black hole to stop"eating" Black holes consume their surroundings, like dust and gas from nearby stars. Their gravitational pull is so strong that not even light can escape after reaching a certain threshold called the event horizon. As black holes consume these things, an accretion disk forms around them—like a donut with a black hole center. But for the first time, scientists in China observed a
