Pharmaceuticals Have Polluted Almost All Rivers Of The World Finds Major UK Study

 

A major UK study finds that pharmaceutical manufacturing sites is the primary contributors of drug contamination and has polluted almost all the rivers of the world.

 

According to recent study, pharmaceutical contamination of the world’s rivers is significantly more widespread than previously assumed, and now constitutes a worldwide hazard to environmental and human health.

 

Only two rivers in Iceland and one near a community in Venezuela were fully untouched by pharmaceutical contamination because their residents do not utilise modern medication.

 

Lahore, Pakistan; La Paz, Bolivia; and Addis Ababa, Ethiopia had the largest concentrations. The Kai Tak River in Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) contained the most medications in a water sample, with 34 pharmaceuticals found.

Rivers in Belgium’s capital, Brussels, Luxembourg, and Dallas, Texas, were among the 20% of rivers with the greatest drug content. Four different medications were discovered in Antarctica.

 

The difficulties appear to be worse where wastewater treatment is least successful and in certain regions where pharmaceuticals are generated, according to the researchers, who collected samples from every continent.

 

They claim that the amount of drugs in rivers is a danger.

 

The finding of antibiotics in rivers is especially worrying, according to the study team, since it encourages bacteria to develop resistance to them.

 

A research published in the medical magazine The Lancet in January 2022 underlined the magnitude of the threat that antibiotic resistance poses. Antibiotic-resistant bacterial diseases killed about 5 million people in 2019, according to the report.

 

Antimicrobial resistance and Water: The Risks and Costs for Economies and Societies, a briefing paper published by the World Economic Forum, estimates that by 2050, antibiotic resistance would be responsible for up to 10 million fatalities per year.

 

The occurrence of drug-resistant bacteria is highest in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia, according to the study published in The Lancet, both of which were shown to have the highest levels of pharmaceutical pollution in the York University study.

Recognizing Donbass republics ‘only way’ to end crisis – Russia

 

The speaker of Russia’s lower house of parliament has praised the decision to recognize the DPR and LPR

 

Moscow’s decision to recognize the sovereignty of the two breakaway Donbass republics was the only feasible way to end the bloody conflict in the region, the Russian State Duma speaker said on Tuesday.

 

Writing on his Telegram channel, Vyacheslav Volodin claimed that acknowledging the independence of the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics (DPR and LPR) was the only route out of what he claims was fast becoming a humanitarian crisis for Russia.

 

“Recognition of the independence of the Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics and ratification of treaties on friendship, cooperation, and mutual assistance should stop the slaughter, the death of our citizens and compatriots living there,” the speaker of the lower house wrote.

 

On Monday, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a decree recognizing the DPR and LPR as sovereign countries. The two states, located in the Donbass region, broke away from Kiev in 2014, following the events of the Maidan when violent street protests toppled the government. They remained unrecognized by any UN nation until this week.

 

According to Volodin, the Donbass republics were the location of a massacre of ethnic Russians, described earlier by Putin as a “genocide.” This claim is not acknowledged by any international body and has been slammed by the US as having “no basis of truth.” According to Moscow, this response was worthy of “outrage and indignation.”

 

“In a situation where we are facing a humanitarian catastrophe, seeing tens of thousands of refugees, women, children forced to leave their homes, the only way out is to take this decision,” Volodin claimed.

Biden Says Russia To "Extend Deeper" In Ukraine, Warns Americans Of Coming "Pain" At Gas Pump

 

Update(2:53pmET): President Biden ended the some five to ten minute or less in length speech in which he stumbled quickly through the teleprompter words (even more than usual awkward reading and emotionless stumbling through) by emphasizing "hope" that diplomacy is still an option. But throughout the address he repeated multiple economic "threats" against Russia which had already been on the table.

 

While he avoided asserting that an "invasion" has already taken place, he opted for the phrasing that Putin is "setting up for an invasion" - which if accomplished will result in severe US sanctions "far beyond 2014". Biden prefaced this by saying the US believes Russia will "extend deeper" beyond the Donbas.

 

Biden introduced the "first tranche of sanctions to impose costs on Russia" which includes "implementing full blocking sanctions" on two major banking institutions, including a key military bank. He also unveiled sanctions on Russia's sovereign debt, and previewed punitive measures on certain Russian elites and their family members.
