There is a post today about alternatives to antibiotics [1.]
I read a recent article [2.] about the state of the antibiotics companies. It was interesting and revealed how over-prescription, fear of over-prescription, and market economics have governed the fate of promising new drugs. Melinta Therapeutics, the company for this post's article, is another antibiotics company that is filing for bankruptcy.
