Agreed! Just thought may be less inconvenient than micafungin infusions if that was an option you were considering

Haven’t used it and not ideal, but maybe rezafungin?

Staph aureus is one of the few true dual-threat pathogens, causing serious disease in both the community and in healthcare settings
To be effective, vaccines will need to overcome Staph's tendency to produce non-protective immune imprints (that "original antigenic sin" thing)

Yes, ends up reading more as an observational study which is a bummer

Agree really interesting and kudos to the authors for running and publishing s prospective phage study. Disappointing that a lot of critical info is in the appendix- isn’t supplemental Figure 7 sort of the crux of the study? Maybe this was due to journal requirements or reviewer feedback

Really interesting and powerful, but ultimately still in vitro so I wonder how realistic. Sort of surprised based on clinical data to not see CS for rifampin/FLQ (fig 4) but maybe that’s because E. coli was model organism. Thx for sharing!!

Thanks so much! It looks like GPCs had wider confidence intervals and leaned closer to inferior- are there any plans for sub-group analysis by species? Would love to see if strep had better outcomes than enterococci, etc. thanks!
