  Salmonella - A Comprehensive...

  Salmonella is a genus of bacteria that plays a major role in human and animal health, causing a wide range of infections with varying degrees of severity. It is responsible for one of the most common foodborne illnesses worldwide, with millions of people affected each year. While many may associate Salmonella solely with food poisoning, it is much more complex, comprising over 2,500 serotypes, each with its own specific characteristics and virulence factors. 
  The discovery of Salmonella dates back to the late 19th century, when Theobald Smith, working under the guidance of American bacteriologist Daniel Elmer Salmon, first identified the bacterium. Since then, much has been learned about its biology, transmission, and impact on public health. Originally, the genus was named after Salmon, though today it is classified under the family Enterobacteriaceae, sharing common traits with other enteric bacteria. Despite the significant advances in understanding Salmonella, new challenges continue to emerge, particularly in the form of antibiotic resistance and emerging serotypes with more aggressive characteristics. 
  Salmonella infections are typically categorized into two main types: gastrointestinal infections and systemic infections. The most common manifestation is gastroenteritis, which presents with symptoms such as diarrhea, fever, nausea, and abdominal cramps. These symptoms usually develop within 6 to 72 hours after exposure to the bacteria. Though often self-limiting, severe cases can lead to dehydration and, in rare instances, death. On the other hand, systemic infections like typhoid fever can cause more severe illness, potentially leading to complications such as intestinal perforation, septic shock, or organ failure. Typhoid fever remains a major health issue in many developing countries, while gastrointestinal Salmonella infections are more frequently encountered in industrialized nations.

  Australia on the Brink

  In 1996, the first independent national report on the state of Australia’s environment found that we faced serious problems. With increasing urgency, five subsequent reports declared those problems were all getting worse, each calling for immediate action to protect our future. The 2021 report determined that, ‘Overall, the state and trend of the environment of Australia are poor and deteriorating as a result of increasing pressures from climate change, habitat loss, invasive species, pollution and resource extraction,’ and warned of the dramatic impact on our health and living standards. It is now clearer than ever that the consequences of long-term inaction are upon us.Accelerating climate change and the loss of our unique biodiversity are the most obvious signs of the grim outlook for future generations of Australians. But the international trends are equally worrying, with quixotic economic systems casting doubt on the wisdom of running down our domestic production of essential goods and services in favour of a dependence on trade. It is no exaggeration to conclude that Australian society itself is at risk.In Australia on the Brink, Ian Lowe argues that the essential first steps in addressing these threats are stabilising the global climate and protecting our local biota. We must also change the emphasis of resource extraction from a damaging reliance on trade to improving our capacity to meet our own needs. This is our best – perhaps our only – chance of restoring a sense of social stability, and the equality of opportunity that was once a hallmark of this country.
