Japan: Outbreak of antibiotic-resistant strain of Mycoplasma due to “mutation”
Japan: Outbreak of antibiotic-resistant strain of Mycoplasma reported, especially in Fukushima, Gunma and Tochigi Prefectures. 80% affected are children under age 14. 501 cases were reported in the week of September 3.Specialists say the bacteria underwent mutation to become antibiotic resistant.

Yes, this diagram shows that there are 3.5 times more now, than it use to be.
It shows clearly the rising started last summer and has been increasing since then.
The immune system is weaker after radiation exposure.

Or is this a big lie, a cover for symptoms resulting from exposure to radiation? That these symptoms are 'resistant' to antibiotics because they don't work on radiation-induced illnesses?
I don't find any information that the 'mycoplasma bacteria' was actually found in any of the patients.
Most mutation results in either no effect or 'lethal mutation', which means the organism mutating can't work as designed. Yes, some diseases become 'antibiotic resistant', but this is the building up of a resistance, not a 'mutation', but generally speaking, mutated butterflies can't fly, and mutated children can't reproduce.
Any excuse to not have to mention radiation as a cause of sickness.
It isn't 'mutated bacteria or viruses' that is going to kill us. It's radionuclides spread across the planet, in our food, air and water. There is no cure. Choose where you want to die, and make plans to get there.

This is serious news. I had mycoplasma while working at a nuclear facility in the US, interestingly enough. Three doctors couldn't diagnose it over five days. I nearly died before the fourth doctor, who had seen it before, correctly diagnosed it. The infection shows up on X-ray, which helps the diagnosis. I even coughed up a piece of windpipe.
Get immediate treatment without hesitation if you sense a "fizzing" or bubbling sensation in your windpipe and feel very sick. The pain only starts after the antibiotics clear up the disease.

Chalk this one up as another one of the good (or great or wonderful things … you decide) … GE brings to life …
So wealthy, so powerful, so …. utterly contemptuous …. a once great company gone rogue … that "just pushed this nuclear thing through" …
with NO LIABILITY TAIL??? … that can't say, "We're sorry …" because then the lawsuits would start in earnest …
or maybe they just like giving people cancer, because it's good for their medical diagnostic equipment sales ???
that now extorts the whole planet and even has goody goody Barack Obama's testicles in their death clamp???
so he can't even give voice to the horror unleashed on all …
what a world, what a world …
peace …

What GE brings to life is mutated life-forms …
… mutated life-forms of all species, from bacteria to dandelions to butterflies to human beings.

I knew that the Earth would find a way to shake us of her back, and we deserve it. The Nuclear cult for the insanity they have committed over 6 decades, and the rest of us for not demonstrating en masse.

Dear Folks,
'In 2000, however, M. pneumoniae showing resistance to macrolides was isolated from clinical samples obtained from Japanese pediatric patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Since then, prevalence of ML-resistant M. pneumoniae isolates in pediatric patients has increased rapidly. In 2007, ML-resistant M. pneumoniae isolates were obtained from Japanese adults with CAP; numbers of such isolates also have gradually increased in Japan. Recently, similar antimicrobial resistance in M. pneumoniae has begun to emerge worldwide.'

'Today, over 100 documented species of mycoplasmas have been recorded to cause various diseases in humans, animals, and plants. Mycoplasma pneumonia as well as at least 7 other mycoplasma species have now been linked as a direct cause or significant co-factor to many chronic diseases including, rheumatoid arthritis, Alzheimer's, multiple sclerosis, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, diabetes, Crohn's Disease, ALS, nongonoccal urethritis, asthma, lupus, infertility, AIDS and certain cancers and leukemia, just to name a few.(1-6)'

'All the researchers above agree that long-term antibiotics must be initiated to treat mycoplasmal infections. Additional strategies must be applied to protect and strengthen the immune system and provide essential nutrients and vitamins.'

andagi – very informative, if disturbing, links!
On reading, a question jumped to mind -
could a strain of M. pneumoniae interact with the bacteria causing pneumonic plague?
And now, given radiation-induced mutation…
I find this news coupled with the info in your links very troubling.

Dear or-well,
My heart goes out to these innocent kids.
Thank you
Their immune systems must be so weak… dear ones…
Your poem says it all. Again, you've made my day!

Nuclear reactors wreck life. And must not be allowed.

I was afraid of this. The horrible thing is that children are affected most. What has man unleashed….

mycoplasma mutating
and mating bacteria -
then diarrhea
in cafeterias,
kids coughing and sneezing,
the elderly wheezing,
the immuno-suppressed
get more diseasing,
through every vector
spread more infections
overwhelming all our
means of detection,
then there's a three-way
with extremophiles -
bugs on the loose,
mutating wild,
mystery black stuff
joins the DNA orgy
and suddenly there's
a Nu-killer algae.
Frikkin' nightmare.
You bet there's testing.
Emergency measures for epidemic.
I'm going for a long walk.

Who wants to RISK having Radioactive Pollution:

.. Where you garden.
.. Where you sleep

Japan/Korea Sea contaminated as much as Tokyo bay

Some readers may not remember that the Japanese are also dumping the radioactive sludge left over from burning their radioactive debris, into Tokyo Bay so that when it later migrates out into the Pacific Ocean they cannot be "blamed" for dumping radioactive pollution (directly) into the Ocean, which is illegal…
