World on cusp of post-antibiotic era | Emergency Preparedness | Forums

I would argue that we are not on 'the cusp' ... we are past that point already ... My wife and I see it on a weekly basis, where antibiotics "don't work" and don't believe it when you hear, "they were too old", "we tried", "they're in a better place"... I am not into conspiracies, but there are a lot of cases where MD's simply don't know why ABx don't work as they are expected to.  It is very serious stuff. 

Learn what 'shelter in place' is.

Wow...if that works that is something!...would love to own stock in that. 

For many years now there has been talk of how 'we' overuse ABx and that we need to cut back, doesn't seem like we do though.  Plus with world travel being so 'easy' it's not hard to see how things can move from one hemisphere to another in half a day. Plus the planet is way overdue for a pandemic.  All scary stuff.

Oh yeah...good boost for their stock...even if this paint doesn't do what it is supposed to do they will make a fortune. Anything this big that has a potential to 'reduce harm' generally will have a wild demand from the get go which means incredible profit.  I hope it works as planned for health care.
