Doctors worldwide are in meltdown after China confirmed that the mystery pneumonia taking over the country has stopped responding to ALL antibiotics.<\/p>\n

The Daily Star has been reporting how the strange unidentified virus has been causing chaos in China for weeks, with the world on high alert over fears a new pandemic could be on the way \u2013 and no official confirmation as to what it actually is. Although it so far only seems to impact mainly children.<\/p>\n

The panic saw officials in neighbouring countries such as India, who are wary of another virus spreading through their population following the outbreak of the coronavirus in 2019, readying themselves for action. It had already reached Europe \u2013 with Denmark and Holland confirming an influx of cases \u2013 with the World Health Organisation on high alert and said to be monitoring the situation. <\/p>\n

But now, in a new worrying development, a mother from China has confirmed that antibiotics given to her one-and-a-half-year-old daughter for the virus have not worked.<\/p>\n

Rachel Qiao, speaking to Bloomberg, confirmed that she was warned by doctors that some youngsters weren't responding to the treatment, and her daughter has now developed \u201clesions in her lungs and continued to deteriorate even after she was switched to an intravenous dosage, given a stronger antibiotic and treated with other drugs to target the inflammation that developed around her heart\u201d.<\/p>\n

She said: \u201cI melted down. I was constantly stupefied by how much worse this thing could go.\u201d<\/p>\n

Although no deaths have been reported yet, the fact that drugs appear not to work on it is bad news, Zuo-Feng Zhang, chair of epidemiology at the Fielding School of Public Health at the University of California, Los Angeles said. He warned: \u201cIf the antibiotic no longer works, the illness will stretch out longer. That increases the risk of spread and the outsized outbreaks that are occurring.\u201d<\/p>\n
