So I was feeling pretty shitting morning. My first instinct was to get me a covid test set up. And since it's getting colder and with my job. A strep throat test also made sense. Gladly both are negative. But my throat is a bit swollen. So I'll be taking some antibiotics for now.
To find new #Antibiotics, you may need to look in crazy, ‘under explored’ places. Like the chest plate of a leafcutter ant in Kenya. This was the home of Streptomyces formicae KY5... #AntibioticAwarenessWeek
We need a big push in #AntibioticDiscovery to help us in the fight against #AMR and #superbugs. Lots of synthetic antibiotics have failed clinical trials, prompting a new search for naturally produced #Antibiotics. #WAAW2021
The dang thing won’t heal properly. I’m writing this 8 days later and it still hasn’t scabbed - every time I shower everything washes off. So now it’s infected and I’m on antibiotics. But I didn’t know that would happen yet when I drew this! Exciting stuff.

In contrast, #antibiotics became easy to synthesise at a huge scale, they were the same each time, were broad spectrum, and worked reliably. Why bother with #phage? #AntimicrobialResistance
It grows when #antibiotics kill good gut bacteria & keeps coming back. It doesn't like oxygen, so outside the gut, it goes into a dormant form, called spores. #anaerobe
Morning WIP in honor of the fact that I finished drinking a course of antibiotics🤧✊
So, it's been determined I have an ear infection 😥
Still dizzy today cus of it, but I'll be starting antibiotics and taking the rest of the week off. I miss you guys so much!! When I come back, I have some really cute things prepared!
Love you, and take care of yourselves 🦊💕
@AmandaTheJedi Actual footage of the antibiotics working their way through your system.
Koalas are Dying from Chlamydia
So, it turns out that yes, Koalas have been ravaged by a venereal disease for decades. They catch it shagging like we do (or by eating their mom's poop - the secret life of koalas is kinda gross). Antibiotics tend to kill their gut bacteria too.
#Microber2021 25: TRANSPOSON
Also known as jumping genes, they’re a handy tool in a many pathogen's toolkit. Transposons give Cryptococcus neoformans the genetic room it needs to adapt & resist antibiotics during infection.

Texting my friend with a masters in English; I haven’t written a paper in forever, how’s this title sound, “Antimicrobial Peptides and Related Alternatives to Antibiotics Against MDROs Review”
her: SEXY
me:
I'll do my best to post a schedule tommorow, I still have 5 days of antibiotics to got hrough and my voice is really weak and pitchy
EMERGENCY COMMS
My cat Eleanor had to go to the vet today for a swollen injury on her paw that she was chewing, and the cost of the exam/antibiotics have me in a rough patch. I'll put prices below and examples here.
I do mostly cartoon and beasties, occasionally humanoids
Swings & roudabouts.
The last 24 hours have been mixed. The broken tooth that appeared safe to leave for a bit developed an agonising infection (now being treated with antibiotics).
But I've just managed to book a ticket to a concert by The Sixteen in Oxford at Christmas! 🌟
