How do we keep other pathogens from becoming drug resistant?
What are pathogens?
Pathogens are bacterium, a virus, or any other microorganism that can cause disease in another organism.
We cannot keep other pathogens from becoming drug resistant. Once the bacteria or a virus spreads/builds up, it will be much more difficult to treat it. When the bacteria builds up, it makes the pathogens worse. In other words, there is no way of controlling the amount of bacteria building up, which will cause the antibiotics to not be as powerful. Treating pathogens with antibiotics will most likely be useless.
Some examples of pathogens are chicken pox, which is caused by a virus. An amoeba called
Naegleria Fowleri, which can be found in many places like fresh water supplies. This bacteria can travel up to the brain and that is when it can start to damage your brain cells. It can be very dangerous, but this infection is rare.
