Re: Do unneeded antibiotic treatments help evolve resistant bacteria?
It would seem clear that when there is every reason to believe
that the patient's infection is viral, the risk is greater than the benefit
(which is zero.)
What about the patient's risk that he may get a secondary
bacterial infection that goes out of control? A secondary bacterial
infection can do a lot of damage, more than the original viral
infection.
