It began with penicillin then antibiotics then broad spectrum antibiotics the immune system built up a natural resistance to them, meaning they had to make them increasingly stronger. The problem is they wipe out the good with the bad, and if the good are not replenished the patient is left more vulnerable than before to fight naturally. So when everyone is gradually elevated to rely more on the antibiotics to combat infections, the sudden halt to availability renders them defenceless against even minor infections and or introduced infections eg Covid, Measles etc etc, the medical profession in cahoots with the Pharmaceutical companies are a 2 edged sword 🗡️ designed to get you either way. Create the problem they have the solution to so that intensifies a problem for their next solution, a viscous cycle of dependency that increases greater risks, to eventually cut the supplies to inflict the greatest damage as possible.

The best thing anyone can do for themselves is build up their own natural immunity asap and get off and stay away from antibiotics altogether for as long as possible. Then and only then, if an infection definitely requires antibiotics use them while maintaining all the natural immunity boosters you possibly can. This becomes personal choices with whatever knowledge and resources one has available to them.

I have not been vaccinated for anything for well over 50 years, and have had antibiotics only 2 or 3 times in the same period. Worked in the building and construction industry until last May at 71. Yes the body wears down, but we can still do well, eating as much fresh produce and the right kind of meats as we can with regular exercise. And no fast foods or processed foods.

Cheers to good health. 🍷🍷

C Diff is indigenous in hospitals and over 50% of the 30,000 that die in US each year (low estimate) from C Diff had intense antibiotic therapy.

They wouldn't prescribe anything that "worked". I had to go see an NP who has her own practice and dedicated herself to helping those around her. She prescribed everything she could and sold the rest out the back...(hydroxycloroquine)

Oh, OK. On the antibiotics. I worked in this office and anytime that a person got a cold the first thing they said.....are you taking antibiotics. Those people lived on them. Clueless....and they were mostly lawyers.

Good, maybe by refusing to prescribe medicine, they'll kill the pharma corps. Besides, Synthetic anti-boitics have horrible side effects.

It's time to get back to nature and use natural aspirin and biotics.

Antibiotic resistance has been a known phenomenon for as long as there have been antibiotics. There would always be a need to keep adjusting antibiotics to keep up with the microbes. But, on the other hand, virulence is biologically expensive, so it would never be a permanent feature of any transmissible microbe. Somewhere along the line, somebody started ignoring the fact that antibiotic treatment is process, not a single formula.

I'm glad to have read that about vets. I took my cat, who was lethargic, to the vet last week and she prescribed them "just in case", along with an NSAID to get rid of his slight fever. I didn't use either of them, but I was surprised at how aggressive she was with prescribing drugs (which her office sold). She sold me a couple of others, plus urged buying five of her vaccines. Vets in the 80s when I was a kid didn't do this.

MIXED MESSAGE: DEM TRICK.

CDC buries measles forecast that stressed the need for vaccinations

https://alabamareflector.com/2025/04/01/the-cdc-buried-a-measles-forecast-that-stressed-the-need-for-vaccinations/#:~:text=%E2%80%9CNo%20vaccine%20is%20without%20risk,coin%20toss%20at%20this%20point.%E2%80%9D&text=For%20many%20years%2C%20the%20CDC,t%20minced%20words%20on%20vaccines.

ProPublica shared the new CDC statement about personal choice and risk with Jennifer Nuzzo, director of the Pandemic Center at Brown University School of Public Health. To her, the shift in messaging, and the squelching of this routine announcement, is alarming.

It’s time for Americans to grow up and take back responsibility for our own health; quit choosing to eat, drink, take substances which we know aren’t healthy. It’s time to choose to exercise daily, control our appetites, grow our own food, and quit relying on medication or surgery to help us lose weight and manage our health. We’ve become a country of spoiled, entitled children. There’s an old saying that if I’m pointing a finger at you, I’ve got three pointing back at myself. 👈 It’s time for all of us to get off the pot or shut up

Hope this can be stopped somehow.

I’ve had persistent UTIs and have only just learned that cutting out most carbs & sugar are probably the cause.

If we were taught such things we could avoid needing antibiotics.
