2018-05-13 21:23:47 +0000 UTCNo, they specialize in bacteria. On the other hand, yes, that’s what viruses came from.

2018-05-13 21:12:13 +0000 UTCVery true, using antiseptics daily rather than mechanical removal is a bad idea. But alcohol swabbed is useful in other ways as rubbing alcohol is a different kind of solvent than water. At any rate, it’s a mechanical method for drying out or removing stains or bacteria.
Crissa Kentavr
2018-05-13 21:11:23 +0000 UTCThis is why triclosan-soaked and alcohol-swabbed everything is one of the dumbest things we as a species have ever done. Mere soap is effective. There is no need to go further than this for everyday cleanliness. Dousing the world in antibiotics assures that only the fittest and fiercest bugs will survive, and then ravage and kill us all.

2018-05-13 14:37:18 +0000 UTCCan’t they evolve to be able to infect human cells tho?
2018-05-13 14:21:59 +0000 UTCNice. Minor nit: the singular of "bacteria" is "bacterium".

2018-05-13 12:30:58 +0000 UTCI loved the video. Interesting that there are more viruses than living things on Earth.
