Could you please read the article before typing?
The article is about research into non-immune system based adaptive systems of the body that reduce disease susceptibility - i.e why some animals and people can tolerate higher bacterial or viral loads without dying then others, and can we develop drugs which enhance these effects or augment them (i.e. giving glucose support to malaria infected rats which arr experiencing an overactive drop in glucose production due to natural responses to effects of malaria).
It's about therapeutic agents to boost survivability without looking directly at pathogen kill paths - it is admittedly weirdly titled.

- dang 4y agoPlease edit out swipes like the first sentence here. The rest of your comment would be just fine without that. If you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to the rules when posting here, we'd appreciate it. One of them is "Edit out swipes", and there's even another about this specific case: "Please don't comment on whether someone read an article. "Did you even read the article? It mentions that" can be shortened to "The article mentions that.""
