Did you know that some bacteria can mutate and change in such a way that antibiotics can become uneffective in treating the disease?
Big news on gonorrhea today. Todays abx aren't effective in killing off this bacteria. So the CDC is pushing for new abx to head off this disease.
Can you image this??? there is a bacterial disease in 2013 that medically can't be cured with todays meds. OH MY!!!!!!!!!!
Don't know why, but I'm wanting to scream.

I changed my thread title with not lyme. I didn't want someone to think our world was about to change in some big way.

- I still hope that some bright journalists will actually wake up and ask good questions of the scientists who are not asking the correct questions yet, either.
They all seem to have glue in their brains about all this. Yet, sometimes, even if simplified beyond belief and key points overlooked, sometimes, there is such a "discovery" as this that I hope will turn on some lights.
Oy, Vey, eh?
What also disturbs me to no end is that they think there is no treatment for viruses. Just because antibiotics don't work on viruses, they think that's the end of the line. They just have their eyes closed to those options (and Tamiflu is not the answer). -

So ABX aren't working. When they do work, Dr's aren't allowed to prescribe them for adequate lengths.

- Good point, droid about doctors not being able to treat adequately to begin with - as well as being pressured to not explore combinations that may vary for individuals. -

Having people believe that there aren't any antivirals out there sure does sell a lot of vaccines!!!!
it is difficult for Drs to treat with long term antibiotics when the state takes away their medical licenses and the insurance companies sue them into bankrupsey.
It's all very frustrating, which is why I took my health into my own hands years ago. Couldn't afford to do it any other way after years of not being able to work at capacity.
I found out in 1994 that - - - oh, my brain - - - can't think of the name of the disease. Anyway it was mutating and resistant to conventional antibiotics. It is the lung disease that is bacterial and transmitted through the air. People are quarantined when they have it. Ah there it is tuberculosis. I think MRSA is a mutated form of staph.
