Unlike the anti-biotic poison, the bacteria do not have a chance to build up an immunity. And if one ever does? Shall we simply assume that you're correct? That it's physically entirely completely impossible for any bacteria ever, by some mutation, to survive a phage attack? I'd like to see

As for the lack of widespread understanding of over-use of antibiotics, I'm sorry, but anyone who has taken and understood a high school biology course should have understood, when they looked at the misuse of antibiotics in agriculture, that this presented a possible human-life-threatening

Hello Hakan Coming from a family with many physicians, I have heard warnings about this for more than 40 years now. The practises are similar to what I am dealing with for energy saving in buildings. 40 years ago, it was a minority of physicians, among them my father, that was very upset with

Keith, Somebody told me the we should not discuss prostitutes and that you might be upset. But we are always coming back to them, not the female version that at least are honest, but the corporate/political ugly one the live on deception and make a lot more money. Hakan At 01:28 AM

If humanity loses the effectiveness of antibiotics, AIDS will be a minor problem in comparison. That appears to be what we are concerned about here in this forum. If only the powers-that-be cared. I think that some of us try very hard not to engage in the shallow one-sided criticisms of
