Why isn’t anyone in the west considering phages that attack bacteria directly. The idea was invented in France, and became popular in the Soviet Union. THey seemed to have pretty good luck with it, as did the British in India.

I understand that phages are hard to patent, but the use of them to kill bacteria seems well documented.

France believes in getting along with bacteria, because it is already every where and is the new normal.

If The bacteria keeps hurting people, then drive the bacteria to the sea.

For a moment I had a vision of a giant, gram negative rod attacking Israel.

The bacteria did not evolve.

The improper use of antibiotics allowed those that were resistant to survive, breeding a population which was very resistant to that antibiotic.

That is why doctors tell you to use ALL of the prescription so there are no surviving bacteria.

Correct, the God deniers try to argue that modern drug resistant bacteria is something new, yet they keep finding that it existed as modern drug resistant bacteria long before antibiotics were distilled from natural sources...

Example:

Modern Antibiotic Resistance Bacteria Is Prevalent in a Cave that was isolated for over 4 million years.
