The first #Canadian study using #phages to treat #superbug infections is underway with scientists reporting a preliminary but encouraging early success case.
"You are considered clinically and biologically cured," said Victoria Marshall as she read a text message from her doctor on the latest test results.
It brought her to tears.
"Well, I can have my life back. It's been really hard."

News outlets around the world got excited by a recent paper where researchers used #AI to help them find a new antibiotic able to suppress the growth of an important #superbug. It’s important & exciting research but just how much work did the AI actually do compared to the researchers themselves?! I explain in my latest Stuff column: https://i.stuff.co.nz/opinion/132216760/siouxsie-wiles-people-plus-machines-find-new-treatment-for-superbug
"After scientists trained the AI model, they used it to analyze 6,680 compounds that it had previously not encountered. The analysis took an hour and half and ended up producing several hundred compounds, 240 of which were then tested in a laboratory. Laboratory testing ultimately revealed nine potential antibiotics, including #abaucin."

Dr. Robert Malone just explained what we already intuitively know: that mass vaccination during an outbreak leads to super spreaders and super bugs:
