The sickle-cell gene is most common in those of African descent. It is curious that a gene which has the potential to be so detrimental to an organism would be so relatively common; not decreasing in frequency through the generations as scientists would expect. Research supports the theory that more people of African descent carry the sickle-cell gene because it decreases the carrier's susceptibility to malaria. In places where malaria is a bigger problem, we find a higher frequency of the sickle-cell gene, thus Africans tend to be more resistant to malaria. While scientists have in no way put this matter to rest, the data is very interesting.

Why is that most black people are resistant to malarial infection?
Most of the black people from Africa and dark people from Indian subcontinent are living in malaria endemic zone, for thousands of years. So they become genetically resistant to malarial infection. ( Mother of contributor, contributor and one of his three sons never had malarial fever. Mr. Ajinya Deshmukh, who is there at Binghampton university, New York, USA has that antimalarial gene, in his blood!) Most importantly, they are immune to malaria, due to repeated attacks of malaria. White people will also become resistant to malaria, when they will live in malaria endemic zone.

It is a bacterial infection caused by a strain of Staph aureus which are resistant to most antibiotics and thus difficult to eradicate. It emerged in 1961 after Methicillin was used to treat this infection. It is now one of the most common Hospital acquired infections.

What is the most effective treatment for a pseudomonas infection that is resistant to multiple antibiotics?
In cases of a pseudomonas infection that is resistant to multiple antibiotics, the most effective treatment may involve using a combination of antibiotics that the bacteria are still susceptible to. This approach, known as combination therapy, can help increase the chances of successfully treating the infection. Additionally, other treatment options such as antimicrobial peptides or phage therapy may also be considered in consultation with a healthcare provider.
