Ukraine’s health minister Viktor Liashko  has issued a stark warning that widespread misuse of antibiotics could render pneumonia untreatable within the next decade and halt organ transplants in the country.

In his comments for a National telethon, Liashko stressed the importance of using antibiotics only when they are prescribed by a doctor, adding that antibiotics are not “much like candy”.

“Right now, if we continue to be careless with antibiotics and disregard doctors’ recommendations, in just 10 years, organ transplants could come to a standstill because there will be no way to treat complications. Pneumonia could become incurable,” Liashko warned.

He argued the trend could lead to the resurgence of infections that have long been under control.

The Minister admitted that antibiotic resistance is a global problem – things got worse during the COVID-19 pandemic when people improperly used antibiotics to treat viral infections.

 

To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).

In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.

Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.

Notorious supporter of the concept “in order for a cow to eat less and give more milk, it needs to be fed less and milked more” “Servant of the People” Danylo Hetmantsev, under the guise of “business requirements”, registered a draft law on the collection of VAT on all foreign purchases, regardless of their value. In other words, every Ukrainian, buying goods of any value and purpose abroad, when sending them to Ukraine, will have to pay an additional fifth part, or 20% of the cost of the goods.
