Bert thanks for that information, very interesting. Will read the paper when I have more time.
Dave, my understanding is that bacteria and viruses have different molecular and protein structures coupled with different mechanisms of infection; as a consequence antibiotics will have no effect on a virus anyway (the antibiotics prevent genesis of cell walls in the bacteria BUT viruses don't have cell walls, as far as I understand). So I guess it's code brown!!
