"We have about 50% of the world's wealth but only 6.3% of its population. This disparity is particularly great as between ourselves and the peoples of Asia. In this situation, we cannot fail to be the object of envy and resentment. Our real task in the coming period is to devise a pattern of relationships which will permit us to maintain this position of disparity without positive detriment to our national security. To do so, we will have to dispense with all sentimentality and day-dreaming; and our attention will have to be concentrated everywhere on our immediate national objectives. We need not deceive ourselves that we can afford today the luxury of altruism and world-benefaction."
~ US State Department, 1948

Comment: What viruses are beneficial to humans? Certainly we must be able to utilize phages for some of the "illnesses" to which we are afflicted.
Phages are the most abundant organisms on Earth and thrive wherever bacteria grow, constantly evolving to keep up with mutating bacteria strains. They are a normal part of the human environment and are commonly consumed via foods and drinking water. Phage therapy applications (in research and development) will include food safety, vet applications for bacterial infections that cause animal morbidity/mortality, environmental sanitation especially for hospitals, and human therapeutics for the treatment of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
Phage therapy was first used in Paris 90 years ago but abandoned by Western medicine for antibiotics. The advantages to phages are: specificity, exclusive locality, no side effects, bacterial resistance is futile, and the development process is rapid. Antibiotics target all microorganisms, do not concentrate at the site of infection, produce multiple side effects, have multi-resistant strains with no effect, and development of new antibiotics is expensive and takes several years.
Only six clinics in 5 different countries offer phage therapy. Hopefully it will make its way into mainstream treatment, but big pharma is running the show and they will squeeze every penny out of the antibiotic cash cow for as long as possible.
