I just want to double facepalm, then bang my head against a wall whenever someone recommends taking antibiotics against the flu or the common cold, as I've given up trying to explain why it doesn't work (viruses are basically bacteria, right?)
- tripzilch 13y agoViruses are smaller than bacteria, so obviously you need more antibiotics to hit them all.
- JetSpiegel 13y agoWhat are these "bacteria" you speak of? Aren't antibiotics a panacea? When you are sick you just take them and they magically make you better. If you have a flu and doctors don't give you antibiotics, they are trying to kill you!
