We have way too many cases of XDRTB, often in impoverished, unindustrialized regions, so this is one of the outbreaks that needs some new treatments and a whole lot less corporate greed.

At the moment, we can build custom bacteriaphages, but currently, solutions like this are largely concerned with the movement of small green pieces of paper (which is odd because on the whole it isn't the small green pieces of paper that are sick.)
