DEALING WITH CYBERBULLYING
Technology means that bullying is no longer limited to schoolyards or street corners. Cyberbullying can occur
anywhere, even at home, via email, texts, cell phones, and social media websites 24 hours a day, seven days a
week, with potentially hundreds of people involved. For those who suffer cyberbullying, the effects can be
devastating, leaving you feeling hurt, humiliated, angry, depressed, or even suicidal. But no type of bullying
should ever be tolerated.
What is cyberbullying?
Cyberbullying occurs when a child or teen uses the Internet, emails, text messages, instant messaging, social
media websites, online forums, chat rooms, or other digital technology to harass, threaten, or humiliate another
child or teen. Unlike traditional bullying, cyberbullying doesn't require physical strength or face-to-face contact and
isn't limited to just a handful of witnesses at a time. Cyberbullies come in all shapes and sizes – almost anyone
with an Internet connection or mobile phone can cyberbully someone else, often without having to reveal their true
identity. Cyberbullies can torment their victims 24 hours a day and the bullying can follow the victim anywhere so
that no place, not even home, ever feels safe, and with a few clicks the humiliation can be witnessed by hundreds
or even thousands of people online.
Tips for kids or teens dealing with cyberbullying
If you are targeted by cyberbullies, it's important not to respond to any messages or posts written about you, no
matter how hurtful or untrue. Responding will only make the situation worse and provoking a reaction from you is
exactly what the cyberbullies want, so don't give them the satisfaction.
It's also very important that you don't seek revenge on a cyberbully by becoming a cyberbully yourself. Again, it
will only make the problem worse and could result in serious legal consequences for you. If you wouldn't say it in
person, don't say it online.

You need only go back 70 years to a time when a scratch and a common infection could prove deadly. Routine surgery and childbirth could be a hazardous business. Penicillin had been discovered in 1928 by Sir Alexander Fleming, but human trials did not begin for over a decade. The first patient was an Oxford policeman, Albert Alexander, who had scratched his face on a rose bush and the wound became seriously infected (another historical version has him injured in a bombing raid). He was treated with penicillin and his condition rapidly improved, but supplies ran out before he could be cured and he died. By the end of the war penicillin was being widely produced, and other drugs quickly followed - marking the start of the antibiotic era.
So most of us have grown up with these miracle drugs readily available. It’s understandable that patients and some doctors simply can’t comprehend the concept of a pre-antibiotic world. But that is what’s at stake unless the threat is taken seriously.
• Rise of superbugs
Much of modern medicine is now underpinned by antibiotics. Surgery is more invasive than ever: from hip replacements to cancer treatment and transplants - antibiotics are essential to prevent and treat infection. There have been repeated calls on doctors to curb the overuse of antibiotics going back many years.
Whilst it is important that the NHS (National Health System in England) exercises better stewardship of antibiotics, it is worth remembering that this is a global problem that requires global solutions. Superbug infections respect no borders and have spread from continent to continent with ease. This is a serious concern because many developing countries have far poorer controls on antibiotic use.
• Misuse
Last year the World Health Organization found that some antibiotics could be bought legally over the counter in 19 out of 43 European countries surveyed. Then there is the widespread misuse of antibiotics in agriculture, in farmed animals and fish. More antibiotics are used in livestock production than for human health and there is widespread concern about the use of long-term, low-dose antibiotics in animal feed in countries like the US, China and India.
Part of the problem is due to simple evolutionary pressure: bacteria are constantly evolving, and resistant strains emerging. This means there is a constant battle to stay ahead of the germs. But developing new antibiotics has proved hugely difficult - it’s nearly 30 years since the last new class of antibiotics came on the market.
