    Thank you for this edifying feature. It reminded me of my mother's health travails last April. She had an extended stay at the hospital after the results of the pneumococcal culture came out five days from admission. She was on intravenous piperacillin tazobactom previously. But according to her pulmonologist, there was no oral cefepime which worked well on Klebsiella, so her stay was extended for the intravenous administration of cefepime.

      The nightmare scenario though is that not only them becoming ineffective but then being ineffective with like superbugs that we've created because of them

    Too bad they failed to mention the huge role the agriculture industry plays in increasing the antibiotic resistance, e.g. meat from mass production farms is ridden with antibiotics, by consuming it we become (somewhat inadvertently) part of the problem.

      Hi Robert, we didn't have time to explore all angles in this short video unfortunately, but you are right that it would be interesting to explore the role of agriculture and the livestock industry

    Bacteriophage technology arrived in 1917. The only reason we use antibiotics is because it hit the market first. Bacteriophages can be designed to go after something specific without destroying other important organisms.

    Doctors usually do not prescribe antibiotics for colds and sore throats but it is so painful when you have a sore throat so I take antibiotics by myself.

    • @TiffanyALuna
      @TiffanyALuna Рік тому +1

      Antibiotics should only be used as a _last_ resort, so that the next bacteria doesn't become *immune* to the antibiotics.
      For sore throats, use natural remedies like the garggling salt and drinking honey lemon teas 🍵💕 etc.

    Life without antibiotics is what history and literature is full of. Kings, presidents, great artists and scientists, dying from things nowadays nobody cares about.

    1. planrs cannot be infected by human viruses, theh might be able to transmit though.
    2. antibiotics aren’t very profitable.

      The names are listed in the video. Look closely for the white titles when the people speak:
      Dame Sally Davies - UK Special Envoy on Antimicrobial Resistance (around 0:34)
      Dr Anna Barnard, Imperial College London (around 1:03)
      Manuel Razo-Mejia, Evolutionary Biologist, Stanford University (around 3:11). Good day/ night to you!

    The amount of antibiotics I got as a child has definitely damaged my health now I’m older but at the same time I would have died a few years ago if I hadn’t of had antibiotics when I got an infection during an operation

    Loved this video as it pertained to my interests, on a unprecedented level. May youre day be filled with joy and safety, i beseech you🤘. One last thing….
    I would venture to say, if you were to discover additional sources and they were found near the icky stuff, then is that not a ideal place to build? Likely already been done, but is it some chemical polarization in the dish?
