Antimicrobial resistance during the COVID-19 era

There are many times as many bacteria in the oceans (13x10^28) as stars in the known universe (1x10^11). In terms of their abundance on the planet, bacteria are only second to bacteriophages (10^31). Viruses shape the biosphere as discussed before (The shapers of the biosphere); however, they are not considered…

A tolerant living organism, humans or microbes, is simply more equipped to adapt and thrive when their environment gets harsh. What is this tolerance anyway? Paraphrasing Charles Darwin’s Theory of Evolution…
