I used to think suffering inconvenience for the sake of my principles made a lot of sense. Now I think, "once I die, I don't have to worry about every fucking thing and I'll finally be done carrying this crushing burden of guilt accumulated over a lifetime as an American."

You seem really upset that others don't share your opinion on the value of sharing news about scientific research. If attacking and insulting strangers on the internet is somehow entertaining or fulfilling to you, that's sad. Unfortunately I'm not willing to be your punching bag. Take care.

I'm curious, why are you so insulting and disrespectful to people with different opinions than you?

Have you ever considered the concepts of "strategy" and "tactics"?

Interrupting bacteria's access to zinc is a strategy. How to do that is a tactical problem that's yet to be solved.

These researchers have identified a potential strategy for fighting bacterial pathogens, not a solution or cure.

There's no health misinformation here. It's science information: researchers discovered that some bacteria's antibiotic resistance is impacted by starving them of zinc.

If you or others think that means you should avoid zinc or take ivermectin, and it ends up making you sick, that's on you.

Wrong. The article you're dismissing contains a link to the peer-reviewed journal the publication originated from www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Exploiting the fitness cost of metallo-β-lactamase expression can overcome antibiotic resistance in bacterial pathogens - Nature Microbiology
Expression of VIM-2 leads to physiological trade-offs for bacterial pathogens that can be exploited to treat infections caused by multidrug-resistant bacteria.

Not sure if you're a far-right anti-science troll or bot, but the source is credible. mediabiasfactcheck.com/genetic-engi...

I, too, can read better than an illiterate teen!

The article also mentioned that the two bacteria studied represent 1/3 of the "globally recognized list of the six most deadly and drug-resistant bacterial pathogens".

Reducing the number of lethal bacteria by 1/3 seems significant to me.
