Antibiotic resistant viruses rife in the peloton.
About Sven Nys:
"The Belgian champion is using antibiotics to get rid of a cold, but he has been having one of his best weekends of the season." If one bothers to search Cycling****e.com you'll find a number of similar stories in which top riders take antibiotics for colds. What bunch of eejits - don't they know it's a virus? Is "antibiotic" a euphemism? Do antibiotics have some great performance enhancing properties? Is the cold just a ruse to get a TUE? All they need is some Lemsip and TLC from their mammies... [that last one just applies to Lance]. ct |

I don't think that it's a function of doctors not knowing better, I think it's a function of doctors giving patients antibiotics to shut them up and get them out of their offices, knowing full well that the cold will go away all in good time. Which results in people dying from the various hostile strains of staph and pneumonia. If you don't believe in evolution, and you get the new pneumonia, we'll give you the old penicillin. Cattle, hogs, and chickens are fed sub-clinical doses of antibiotics as well. That's why there is salmonella, staph, E. coli that just don't quit. Colds, treated aggressively, will go away in 5 - 8 days. When left alone, it takes about a week. |
