Researchers attempting to find a cure for this modern-day, antibiotic resistant / immune "Super-bug" seem to have stumbled upon what seems to promise to be a cure for the scourge. In a 1,000 year old formula for an Eye salve.
"Garlic, onion, wine, and the bile from the stomach of a cow", proved to be VERY effective at killing it. . . :yes:
Sounds like an Italian dinner to me! :biggrin:
I read about this earlier today.
I also read where they're injecting polio into different types of cancer cells and having quite a bit of success with it. Any news of success against cancer is okay in my book. :yes:
