“The Red Plague”

• Refers to emerging resistance in Gram negative organisms (E. coli, Klebsiella spp.)

• Cause common infections e.g. UTI in community

• High rates of resistance in Asia-Pacific region

• Some strains pan-drug resistant

Multi-resistant organisms post 2002 Bali bombings

• 35 patients with severe burns transferred to Royal Perth– 19 Multi-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii (MRAB)

– 15 Extended-spectrum B- lactamase producing Gm-negs (ESBL)

– 9 Vancomycin-resistant enterococci (VRE)

– 6 Multi-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa (MRPA - 2 fatal)

– 3 MRSA

• Transmission of MROs to 41 non-Bali pts in RPH– 11 bacteremias

– 4 deaths with MRPA

Heath C et al. Aust Infect Control 2003;8:43-54

In 2010, a multi-drug carbapenem-resistant K. pneumoniaewas introduced into the ICU of a Sydney Metropolitan

Hospital by a patient recently returned from Egypt. Three additional patients acquired the organism over several months before

termination of the outbreak. All four patients who developed an infection with this organism died.

Then introduction and spread of carbapenem-resistant bacteria

There have been previous documented cases of infection with imported blaNDM-1-containing bacteria in Australia.

We hypothesise that this carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae isolate was acquired after transmission from an unidentified carrier of blaNDM-1, possibly

during previous hospital admissions or receipt of home nursing care.

Now community spread of carbapenem-resistant bacteria

Malaria globally and regionally

But Its Worse Than We Thought: February 2015

• 17 Member Countries (from the initial 11 in 2009)– Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, China, India, Indonesia, DPR Korea, Republic of Korea, Laos,

Malaysia, Nepal, Philippines, Solomon Islands, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Vanuatu, Vietnam

• 18 Research and Service Partners

Successful elimination of malaria inSolomon Islands and neighbouring

countries would be a historicachievement for the health of the

peoples of our region, and it wouldalso pay a dividend for Australia’sown public health and biosecurity.
