The Cold War

With antibacterial soap, most of the bacteria is killed but few that are resistant to the killing agent remain, reproduce and build up their forces so that then next interaction with the antibacterial soap will have no effect. So the pharmaceutical companies develop a new antibacterial agent that will kill the new strain of bacteria and thus the cold war continues...

And speaking of Cold War, the common cold is caused by a virus. Like I explained in my previous post, a virus infiltrates a cell, that cell communicates to all other cells to protect their borders and the infected cell self destructs thus discontinuing the proliferation of the virus. This is how a virus is meant to be fought. Soap and antibacterial soap alike do not help to rid viruses from the skin. But, we have always been instructed to wash our hands to prevent colds. Farce.
