Florida is reporting a surge in deadly infections caused by the bacteria Vibrio vulnificus in the aftermath of Hurricane Ian.
Driving the news: Lee County alone has recorded 29 cases and 4 deaths as of Friday, according to Florida’s Department of Health. The state’s overall numbers have risen to 65 cases and 11 deaths, compared to 34 cases and 10 deaths in 2021.
Details: Found in warm, brackish water, Vibrio vulnificus usually enters human bodies through the consumption of raw or undercooked seafood, though it can also cause infections through open wounds, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The crystals are significantly larger than any that have ever been created previously.
A hitherto unknown characteristic of colloidal crystals, highly organized three-dimensional arrays of nanoparticles, has been discovered by Northwestern University researchers very recently.
According to Northwestern University’s release, similar to the natural structures found in chameleon skin and butterfly wings, DNA-engineered colloidal crystals demonstrate shape-shifting and structural memory.
It’s more affordable and effective.
City College of New York’s new AI model will be able to predict accurately human response to novel drug compounds. Moreover, it is less costly and faster. Published in Nature Mature Intelligence.
According to research, the new CODE-AE model can screen brand-new medication molecules and reliably forecast their effectiveness in people. In tests, it was also able to find potentially more effective tailored medications for over 9,000 patients.
