I've never understood why someone doesn't just breed animals that are
naturally immune to all of the usual things that the antibiotics are
used for. Put 10 thousand chickens into a pen and high-grade the
survivors out and breed them into a new phenotype of chicken or
whatever.
Surely, there are some that would survive from all of it. Then the
antibiotics wouldn't be necessary in the first place.
As little as I know of the subject, that which I don't know is
probably the answer to my question.

Not very surprising. One third of healthy humans, are longterm carriers
of staph.aureus on their skin and nasal cavity; and one fifth of healthy
humans are carrying antibiotic-resistant staph aureus. Hospitals here swab
and test inpatients on arrival.

Instead of making existing agencies work better, we created more:
Homeland Security being the most obvious.
My new pet peeve is the air traffic controller sleep problem. They
are falling asleep because they only get 8 hours off before starting
another shift, yet they are being blamed instead of the public being
informed of the cause. It's unbelievably incomplete news reporting
and blame shifting, but it confirms that this is still a blame the

The bizarre shifts the FAA has ATCs working certainly doesn't help,
however the real problem is the lack of air traffic during the times the
controllers are falling asleep. Two controllers on duty will help
overcome the issues of falling asleep, but the underlying problem is the
lack of active work for the controllers during these times. I'm not sure
what media you're listening to where you think the issues of shifts and
low traffic at these airports are not being reported, I've heard those
issues in detail from multiple sources including the local TV stations
in my area.
Given the lack of any need for the ATCs to physically do anything at
these airports and given the available technology, it makes little sense
to keep one or two ATCs on duty overnight at these small airports. What
would make far more sense is to consolidate the ATCs covering all small
airports to a handful of central control centers, likely co-located with
existing national control centers, where a reasonable sized group of
ATCs could readily monitor a larger number of airports to deal with the
small amount of traffic during the overnight hours. All of the radar
displays, communications and even visual monitoring out the control
tower windows can be readily remoted with existing technology. Staffing
of one controller per 5 small airports should be easily and safely
achievable with such ATC pooling.

The meat glue is gelatin, so it would be completely
absorbable by the body if it were used to glue up
a large cut or hole. You can't do that with liquid
bandage.

they take the catheter out... yikes) I changed into my own clothes, all
brand new pajamas, robe, and underwear still new in the bag. I brought brand
new in the package toothpaste, toothbrush, hand soap and so forth, I did my
best not to touch anything furnished by the hospital. It may have made no
difference for all I know, but I've known two people who got severe MSRA
infections and they both spent many months hospitalized and laid up at home.
One of them had to have an artificial hip removed, the entire area debrided,
and then she laid in a skilled nursing facility with no hip for two months
while they got it under control, then back for another hip.
Color me paranoid.

Your conditional statement is bullshit by the way. Those certainly
aren't the only two possibilities.
Anyone living in the real world knows exactly what "Government
Employee" means. If you take one thousand people aside individually
and ask them to describe exactly what a Government Employee is and
does, from the lowest job to the highest, (That of course would be the
President), and then correlated the data, you would find the proof
that the general public thinks the same things about Government
Employees that I do. This isn't an absolute of course, as nothing is
absolute.
Stick to cooking. You obviously don't have a clue about much else.
Don't feel bad. You would probably argue that big corporation
employees are almost as bad as Government Employees.
You'd be wrong again.
