Recent data from the Jakarta Health Agency revealed an uptick in Acute Respiratory Infections (ISPA) post-pandemic cases. The agency reported approximately 146,000 ISPA cases monthly this year. Interestingly, while this is higher than the pandemic period, it’s still consistent with the numbers from 2018 and 2019.

A revolutionary discovery by researchers in Singapore and MIT has uncovered a new bacterial stress signalling system, opening doors to new methods of combatting antibiotic resistance, a growing public health concern. The research team identified an enzyme, RlmN, that rapidly signals for the production of proteins allowing bacteria to adapt and survive. This could help design drugs that prevent this survival response, effectively tackling antibiotic resistance.
