An antibiotic-resistant "superbug" strain of typhoid fever has spread
globally, driven by a single family of the bacteria, called H58, according
to the findings of a large international study.

.
Typhoid is contracted by drinking or eating contaminated matter and
symptoms include nausea, fever, abdominal pain and pink spots on the
chest. Untreated, the disease can lead to complications in the gut and
head, which may prove fatal in up to 20 percent of patients.
.
Vaccines are available -- although, due to limited cost effectiveness, not
widely used in poorer countries -- and regular strains of the infection
can be treated with antibiotic drugs. However, this study found that the
H58 "superbug" version, which is resistant to multiple types of
antibiotics, is now becoming dominant.
.
"H58 is displacing other typhoid strains, completely transforming the
genetic architecture of the disease and creating a previously under
appreciated and on-going epidemic," the researchers said in a statement
about their findings.
