There's got to be some smart high schooler out there that will find out how to immunize humans from all of the harmful types of bacteria with no need to constantly change the drug. It's scary to think that we really have very little control over this problem, but humanity has surprised me before so hopefully it will do it again.

  • The problem with that is that bacteria evolves. Like any other living thing, it wants to survive and so it will do anything it can to survive, the drug must change because the bacteria changes. The common cold is the best example of micro-organisms that evolve, the reason we don't have a drug for it is because it evolves at an incredibly fast speed, literally a new string of it appears every second.

    I just hate those little bastards. They're like annoying 13 year olds who think that you can add the word "dick" to anything and it makes it the funniest thing in the world.

  • I quite agree! Particularly annoying when people mistake a bad cold for the flu-_-. However I find bacteria to be fascinating! They can evolve new attributes in a matter of months, that would take humans decades to gain.
