That isn't true. I'm on ampicillin and you can smell the cloride on my skin and in my urin. BUT me just touching someone or being in contact with someone WON'T cause the bacteria become resistant. I know this because I can take one dose of an antibotic and later be put on that antibotic and it still work. Now if they put me on for a few days then take me off it doesn't work as well when they put me back on. In short the bacteria would have to be exposed to the anibotic for several days. The major problem with the bacteria becomming resistant is they don't culture the bacteria to see what will kill it. They just say well this might do, put the person on, then guess again as to how long it will take to kill it. Nine times out of ten they guess wrong because they are under the impression that 10 days of antibotics will kill anything. I also know for a fact that their wrong. Let me give you an example. I was diagnosed with lyme. They put me on clafrin IV for 30 days. About 3 weeks into the treatment I told the doctor that each time the pump kicked on to clear the line it opened my sinuses. So he put it on constant. The 30th day I went in there and my sinuses were pooring like I had a cold. I begged him to leave me on and he said that's all they will allow me to give you. I feal at that time I was cured but needed to be on for another 1-2 weeks to finish the job. After that I was on the clafrin 2-3 more times and would start to get better then after 30 days they jerk me off. I finally convinced one to put me on for 3 months. Low and behold I was cured. I told him that I was fealing good and to take me off. Two weeks later I got a line infection and I was back to square one. Now the clafrin has about 10% of the effectiveness that it had when I started. Same thing with Ansef. I was on for 30 days. Sinuses opening real good each time it was infused. The doc went on vaction and the guy he left in charge took me off. When the doc came back he put me back on. Then it was about 50% effective. After 2 months it still wasn't working. > In many hospitals the type of antibiotic has to be changed frequently >because staff have become immune. Does anyone have further info on this? I have an artical that was given to me by my nurse. It states that there are strands of staff in the major hospitals that are Vancamicin resistant. It also states that those microbes can live for two weeks in the air and are found on bed rails and sheets. In order to treat something like that they have to let the microbe go through it's cycle and reproduce. Their off spring isn't as resistant.
