Not knowing the exact bacteria, instead patting the patient on the back as they leave with their antibiotic prescription only to return for another if the problem doesn't clear up has led us to this point.

Lab costs to identify the exact problem take time and cost money. I would say we've counted on antibiotics as the silver bullet for too long.

BTW, in watching CNN last night, re vacciniations in the third world, it occurred to me that there is a real disconnect between 'excess capacity in SE Asia' and the dirth of vaccine supply in the third world. Clearly capitalism has a flaw or two if not tempered by intelligent spending by a central authority.

MCDE down over $1 on double normal volume- ouch.
