Bitey

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Wow, a new unknown bacteria! Probably two pills of any generic antibiotic and it's gone! Oh no, let me never pet a stray ever again.
Last year one guy in England went outside for a walk, slipped and fell hitting his head against the pavement -- he ended up in a hospital. Me, I now do not recommend anyone in the world ever leaves the premises of their apartment.
Read the article, he was on a cocktail of generic antibiotics and still needed iv vancomycin
To be fair, the sub headline says "was bit by" so I wouldn't hope for any journalistic excellence
Challenge difficulty: impossible
Based on my experiences, it's not a good idea and should be avoided if possible.
