tonight at 19:30, Phoenix Health "The Deadly Bacteria in the Home" will be broadcast simultaneously on Phoenix TV Chinese Channel , Phoenix Show APP, and Phoenix.com , please stay tuned!
real case
One afternoon, the emergency room of Peking Union Medical College Hospital admitted a patient with a confusion. After asking the family, the doctor learned that the patient began to have severe coughing a month ago, coughed up orange-red phlegm and began to have a continuous high fever, and gradually showed symptoms of confusion. The emergency doctor immediately took a chest radiograph on the patient, but found that half of the patient's lungs disappeared...
The disappearance of the patient's lungs was actually related to a bacteria called "pulmonary edible fungi"! It mainly invades the lungs and can cause severe pneumonia. Damage to the body's lungs will inevitably affect blood oxygen , causing hypoxia and ischemia of multiple organs, especially the heart and brain. Once ischemia and hypoxia, death may occur at any time. According to statistics, once infected by this bacteria, the mortality rate can reach up to 45%! What is this "pulmonary edible fungus" like
? Where does the most "lung-eating fungi" in the home environment?
"lung-eating fungi" is the hidden place
"lung-eating fungi" is actually Legionella . Legionella is a type of aerobic Gram-negative bacillus and is a common pathogenic bacteria in life. Legionella is widely present in natural freshwater environments and artificial water bodies. Why is Legionella called "pulmonary edible fungi"? This is because Legionella mainly invades alveolar and bronchiolites, and can also produce and release a variety of toxins to cause persistent damage to the lungs, and enter the bloodstream to cause lesions in external organs and tissues.
A study from the UK Ministry of Public Health found that 49% of the "lung-eating fungi" in the bathroom were positive. "Pulmonary Eating Fungi" really likes humid and airtight environments. Therefore, the family bathroom is an important host of "pulmonary fungi"!
In many people's bathrooms, some people never clean the faucet, and it is exactly where "lung-eating fungi" loves to hide!
Experts from the U.S. Health Council pointed out that more than half of American households have a large amount of bacteria attached to the faucets. Research shows that kitchen faucet has more than 13,000 bacteria per square centimeter , while the amount of bacteria per square centimeter of bathroom faucet exceeds 6,000.
How should we clean the faucet and eliminate "lung-eating fungi"?
Step 5: Remove the scale
First wipe the water from the faucet, then dip the white vinegar with a dry rag and stuff it into the water dragon. Wipe it repeatedly until the scale is removed, and then remove the rag; remove the faucet, soak it in hydrochloric acid solution, and rinse it for about an hour, and you will find that the scale has been broken.
Step 2: Kill the "lung-eating fungi" on the surface of the faucet
Use a cotton swab to dip 1:50 water and hydrogen peroxide mixed solution to clean the water outlet of the faucet. The faucet is generally made of metal. During the scrubbing process, you can use a soft cloth to dip clean water and hydrogen peroxide to scrub it vigorously.
Step 3: Kill the "lung-eating fungi" inside the faucet
Research found that when the water temperature is maintained at 65℃, the "lung-eating fungi" can be completely killed in 25 minutes, and when the water temperature is maintained at 70℃, the "lung-eating fungi" can be completely killed in 10 minutes. So you can choose to boil the faucet at home and boil it in boiling water for 8-10 minutes.
After killing the "lung-eating fungi", everyone can install the faucet back.
Dangerous food that cannot be put into the refrigerator
In addition to the "lung-eating fungi" in the bathroom, the refrigerator is a place for "diarrhea bacteria". Many people think that food is safe to put in the refrigerator.In fact, bacteria such as Yersinia, Listeria , all belong to refrigerant , and are easier to reproduce in large quantities at the temperature of refrigeration and freezing! For example, Listeria can survive under low temperature conditions for a long time. After infection, people will experience symptoms such as fever, muscle pain, nausea, diarrhea, etc., and in severe cases, it may even develop into meningitis and sepsis, which is life-threatening!
How to use the refrigerator correctly and reduce the harm of "diarrhea bacteria" in the refrigerator?

2. Frozen food also has a "storage period"
→Dumplings, wontons, dumplings, etc. in quick-frozen foods, and it is recommended to eat them within 1 to 2 months;
→Semi-finished vegetables, such as corn kernels, chestnuts, etc., and the freezing time should not exceed 5 months;
→Red meat can be frozen for 10 to 12 months, and the storage time should be longer than 5 months;
→Surface meat and seafood should be eaten within 4 months, with a maximum of no more than 6 months;
→Red meat can be frozen for 10 to 12 months, and lean meat is stored for a longer time than fat meat; The freezing shelf life of poultry meat is 8 to 10 months, which is slightly shorter than that of red meat.
