At the
Eliava in Georgia patents are treated for all kinds of bacterial infections with viruses known as phages, in other countries these diseases are cured with antibiotics. Phages work by getting in side of the bacteria and their DNA will replicate until the bacteria die. This could be the future for medicine seeing that more and more bacteria are becoming resistant to antibiotics.
The phages can be injected, sprayed or even swallowed. The good thing about phages are that they have no side effects or negative aspects which antibiotics do.
In the future we may see phages used to treat minor bacterial infections and antibiotics kept for the serious life-threatening conditions.
