I remember from the news years ago the story of the wife saving her husband through phage therapy and remember thinking how extraordinary but also how sad. My recollection is that the only reason her husband survived is because she is/was a scientist and reached out to many different contacts at universities etc to plead for them to try and develop a phage for her husband and I think at the 11th hour one finally did (after many failures?). I haven’t read the book but the story was incredible. It also demonstrated the upside and downside to access. 99.9% of us could not have accomplished what she did even if we have a lot of resources to throw at the problem generally (which of course many of us don’t). I can’t tell you how many times I’ve wished that I had married a plumber, electrician, or mechanic. I guess I now have to add microbiologist to that list.
