Can AI help fight covid-19?

Phages and bacteria are locked in an ever-ongoing arms race with each other. As more antibiotics are failing us, scientists are turning to phages, which have been engineered by nature's wisdom to stay a step ahead of bacteria. In 2019, phage therapy cured two patients with drug-resistant infections. One patient was about to have his leg amputated due to an MDR (multi-drug resistant) bacterial infection. Doctors used an experimental phage therapy that cured him and saved his leg.
