Scientists and engineers make our world tolerable...Lawyers and politicians do the opposite.
Like traditional antibiotics, it probably will work for an undetermined number of years before a super-super bug comes into existence as it adapts to this new antibiotic.
Great!
Now about that Global warming thingy...................
“”The discovery of this novel compound challenges long-held scientific beliefs...”
No, it doesn’t.
I’ve cut my finger while chopping garlic a couple of times, once pretty seriously.
Each time, I’ve been intrigued by how fast the cut seems to heal and disappear completely.
Really?
Please elaborate: which "long-held scientific beliefs" does it challenge? Name one.
Even if that statement is true ... So ... What? Discovery is part of the essence of the natural sciences. It's part of their appeal ... there's always something new waiting "around the corner". To say that "long-held 'beliefs'" are being challenged is identical to saying that scientists are doing their jobs.
“The new antibiotic was discovered in a sample of soil.”
See parents?
This is why you need to let your kids out to play in the dirt sometimes, instead of slathering them with antibacterial soap constantly.
The big question I have is does it kill the good flora in your gut like all the rest of the antibiotics do? I already take 30-60 BILLION Multi Strain PROBIOTICS, plus digestive enzymes all from a doctor drug ruined GI system.
What are the side effects?
Doesn’t matter... Won’t be authorized under Zero-care. Doesn’t fit the death panel agenda to kill off more folks to relieve the pending ‘stress’ on social services and such.
So “rub some dirt on it and keep going” really does work.
I’ve been on record here for a long time that one of the biggest health problems we have these days is kids don’t eat enough dirt.
