A Generational Scientific Discovery Just Occurred
I am a big fan of Big Pharma. My wife and I have both benefited from breakthroughs in pharmaceuticals as have many of those reading this. But bacterial resistance to antimicrobial drugs has skyrocketed in recent years, resulting in 1.1 million deaths in 2021 alone. That number will jump to 1.9 million annual deaths by 2050.
Now, researchers have identified a new antibiotic molecule that can kill a wide variety of harmful bacteria, including drug-resistant strains, without being toxic to human cells. It’s a generational scientific discovery that was accidentally found in soil samples collected from a laboratory technician’s garden.
As science has struggled in the modern world with increasingly drug-resistant diseases, this groundbreaking development offers hope. But miracle drugs like this will never be taken by a segment of society who choose to listen to the conspiratorial voices on the fringe. I am increasingly worried that plunging institutional trust is quickly bringing us to a new dark age where we forget the basics of what works. Watch:
Like most things in life people need to use common sense and take control of their own health. You should know your body better and pay attention to want works and what doesn't. I am amazed at the number of people who can quote sports stats, cars, movies, etc. but have absolutely no clue how their body works, or their medications. They don't read the information on drugs or take them properly, or assume that if available must be safe or as Erick says jump on every fringe thing as long as says "big Pharma is trying to stop us" click here and spend money! With cell phones & internet you can check words, get side effects explained as today most Drs don't spend the time to even answer, especially if you can only give vauge discriptions. We are all different - DNA, environment, food, air/water, etc. it is amazing anything works on majority at all. We did this to ourselves taking antibiotics for everything, I had to just keep telling Drs NO, I just wanted to know what I had and what to watch out for I didn't want antibotic if would clear up with rest, fluids. The number of women who don't know antibiotics render the pill useless, or take antibiotics for flu or argue with dotors I want that miracle new med saw on TV is insane. While not a fan of big pharma they also lose money on the many efforts that don't pan out, get sued wrongly & rightly on drug deaths that occur. We need to step up support innovation, stop doing ourselves in by eating junk and exercise, it would prevent alot of issues. Not easy but isn't your life or your families worth it?
Isn’t it amazing this development stemmed from God’s natural processes and not from a “gain-of-function” lab?
