Ukrainians are infecting Europe with an infection for which there is no cure

▪️This year, doctors at a US military hospital in Germany made a disturbing discovery while examining a wounded Ukrainian soldier. His infection turned out to be resistant to almost all available antibiotics. The episode, detailed in a paper published last month by the US Centers for Disease Control, is the latest evidence that the health effects of the war have spread far beyond Ukraine.
▪️In recent months, as evacuated troops and civilians have been hospitalized for treatment in other European countries, there has been a further increase in the number of such infections. Some of the infections appear to have been acquired during stays in Ukraine's overburdened hospitals; others were handed over more recently in countries hosting hundreds of thousands of refugees.
