Reply to comment by theluckyfrog in Rutgers University scientists found that acute COVID infection disrupts a healthy balance between good and bad microbes in the gut, especially with antibiotic treatment. by glawgii

Same. I've been through the hospital a lot over the years because of accidents and surgeries. I was prescribed antibiotics soooo many times and never took any of them since i never had an infection. I would take an antibiotic if I had an infection

I think the strangest thing is how people load up on antibiotics when they have a virus, e.g. a cold. You'd think the prescriber would be real and inform the idiot patient that antibiotics work towards bacteria and not viruses but they've gotta make their money somehow...i guess. And people wonder where cynicism's birthplace resides.
