Trump's surgeon general: US needs to fight antimicrobial resistance to prevent next pandemic (https://www.foxnews.com/health/trump-surgeon-general-us-fight-antimicrobial-resistance-prevent-next-pandemic)
As I sit here typing today, I am living proof that the resistance is real, and can be deadly. In the winter of 2019 Doctors told my wife that I had a 5% chance of leaving Baptist Hospital in Lexington alive. They used every antibiotic at their disposal over a month and a half, and I eventually recovered from the infection. They still send my wife an email every couple of months to see if I am still alive.
If you have a microbial infection and are prescribed an antibiotic to cure the problem, follow the instructions to the letter and cure the problem completely. Do not take the chance of developing a resistant strain of those nasty little bugs.
