When not to ask for antibiotics...

In this video I talk about the use of antibiotics for the treatment of infections and why they aren't effective against viruses. The example of a sore throat caused by a bacterial or viral infection is one commonly seen. About me: I’m Filip, a medical doctor and PhD student from Croatia. I make videos about medicine and science, with the aim of providing useful and interesting information to everyone, regardless of whether they have a medical background or not. I am myself on a journey of learning about medicine and science, and by watching these videos you can join me on that journey. :) 📸Instagram:   / ellipsis_filip   🐦Twitter:   / ellipsis_filip   🎬 New video every Thursday! :) Chapters: 0:00 Intro 0:45 Typical patient with a bacterial infection 1:43 What a bacterium looks like 2:08 Penicillin's target 2:25 Typical patient with a viral infection 3:00 What a virus looks like 3:49 A spectrum of patients with infections 4:09 Why not give antibiotics anyway? 4:50 Discerning bacterial and viral infections
