The "success" rate would still be very high, as most people would surmount the infection. However, the "failure" rate (people dying) would be much higher as well...
I am sure you can see that would be an ethical and practical problem. Where would you put the "safety" cutoff of not giving zithromax?
- douche 10y agoReally, what are the rates on people dying from tier 1 infections like that
- rscho 10y agohttps://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm4829a1.htm https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm4829a1.htm That kind of rates. In the 1918 influenza pandemics for example, many people died of a bacterial pneumonia following the flu infection. So you see, the impact of "1-tier" infections is very real without antibiotics. EDIT: by all means, downvoters, make your point explicit!
