VIROME THERAPY
Multidrug-resistant bacteria could kill 10 million people per year by 2050. One way to avoid this threat is to find new therapeutics, as the development of novel antibiotics is both slow and expensive. The relative ease by which phages can be isolated from the environment and their high specificity, reducing the risk of microbiota getting damaged, suggest phage therapy as an alternative to antibiotics.
