I'd like to know what this will do for bacteriophage therapy. Georgia has been the center of phage research since the 20s and has a massive bank of phages for all sorts of infections. Can someone more knowledgeable of this topic explain why the end of antibiotics is such a problem if there's already a decent alternative? What are the downsides to phage therapy?
