Scientists say climate change is making salmonella bacteria harder to treat. Warmer temperatures help these bacteria grow faster. New research shows that changing rain patterns also play a role. When temperatures rise, the number of drug-resistant infections goes up. This means more people may get sick and doctors may have fewer tools to help them.
The study looked at data from many countries. It found that hot areas have more antibiotic-resistant infections. Scientists believe this will get worse as the planet continues to warm. They want governments to act now to stop this problem. Better testing and careful use of antibiotics could help keep people safe.
