Unfortunately, it is. AFAIK, it is already immune to (almost) all medicaments used in the past to cure it #Sniper #2gunfire #Beer

Extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis
I see, another bacteria that has evolved to become resistant to anti-biotics. I recall hearing that patients with some of these resistant diseases are confined to hospitals mainly to ensure total compliance with the medication regimen so they don't become resistant to that next level of pills. This sounds much more dangerous than ebola, better get a shrubber on it pronto!

Thanks Sir LanDroid for the link. You are right, we need such project more than Ebola one. But it has to be reliable, with clear objectives, narrow path and honestly stated result usage.

And apologize for using funny "immune" word instead of "resistant" in my previous post Embarassed

The admin/student decided to vacation in France for two weeks, which of course signaled the servers to crash immediately upon his departure. Looks like he is back and everything is running at the moment.
