#Typhoid isn’t untreatable – yet.
"This feels very much like a canary-in-the-coal-mine signal."
But Dr Malick Gibani of @imperialinfect.bsky.social warns it’s becoming far harder to manage as #AMR spreads from one drug class to the next, in @telegraph.co.uk 👇 www.telegraph.co.uk/global-healt...
Typhoid fever is endemic in Kenya, with 126,000 cases annually. Despite new vaccines, the battle is far from over.

Even birds that look healthy after surviving #fowl #typhoid can continue shedding the bacteria in their droppings, eggs, and through contact.
That’s why in serious outbreaks, culling infected and exposed birds is often recommended instead of treatment alone.

#Typhoid is a serious public health threat in many parts of the world. We can prevent it with vaccines—but to ensure access, we need more of them.
That's why PATH supported a study of #EuBiologics’ new typhoid vaccine. Results are promising: https://bit.ly/4r8aBKb

Disease pathophysiology Human challenge studies suggest that bacteria passing through the gastric acid barrier after ingestion require an infectious dose between 103–104 bacteria for S Typhi and S Paratyphi A.29,30 Evidence from other enteric infections suggests that reduced gastric acidity, due to gastrectomy or proton pump inhibitor treatment, could reduce the inoculum required.31 Past infection with Helicobacter pylori is a further suggested risk factor.32 The bacteria pass through the wall of the ileum through M cells overlying the Peyers patches and are then ingested by monocyte-macrophage cells in the submucosa and mesenteric lymph nodes (figure 2).33,34 The bacteria survive intracellularly and travel via the lymphatic system and bloodstream to the reticuloendothelial system (liver, spleen, and bone marrow).35 After multiplication in the reticuloendothelial system, re-invasion of the bloodstream coincides with the onset of symptoms.33 The typical incubation period can vary according to the quantity of bacteria ingested but is typically 7–21 days, occasionally as short as 2 days, and with the majority of cases within 28 days.

#Typhoid doesn’t just make kids sick—it keeps them out of school & sets families back economically. “Vaccines are safe,” Cabinet Secretary Hon. Aden Duale said at the launch. “Vaccines work. And when we vaccinate our children, we are investing in their education, productivity & the nation’s future.”
⬇️ A powerful moment for Kenya as the country launched a national immunization campaign to protect millions of children from #typhoid and #measles.
We are proud to support the Kenya Ministry of Health,
@gavi.org, @afro.who.int, @unicef.org, and partners to deliver vaccines that save lives. 💪
One ceftriaxone-resistant #typhoid case last year set us on a path that is now live on Emerging Infectious Diseases.
47 cases in months, resistance rose from 0 to 5%. We spoke with patients, sequenced samples. 4.3.1.2.B1 lineage+blaCTX-M-15 on pCROB1. #AMR #PublicHealth
