Again, no one is saying that antibiotics will help fight a virus, so I don't know why you keep posting links like that. But when your body is run down from fighting a virus, your immune system is weakened. Thus, you are vulnerable to bacterial infections that you otherwise would not be vulnerable to. This is why antibiotics are prescribed.

They are scrambling to replace ineffective antibiotics with probiotics like spirulina that strengthen immune systems and prevent disease.
