Phage therapy refers to a method whereby a custom cultured, harvested, or isolated virus is intentionally introduced in vivo and sometimes externally in order to clear harmful bacterial infections. When either injected or sprayed on, bacteriophages act as predators. They will hunt, kill, and devour a specific type of bacteria until the entire colony has been eradicated from the host. After having lost its source of food, the virus will fail to thrive and eventually die off. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YI3tsmFsrOg^{**VIDEO:** [**Youtube.com/user/Kurzgesagt**](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YI3tsmFsrOg)}The video above does a fairly good job at explaining the way that bacteriophages work. However, it seems to convey the false impression that this is something that has been newly discovered. In truth, phage therapy has been around for decades. Shunned by the west in favor of antibiotic pharmaceuticals, phage therapy has long been openly practiced mainly in Eurasia, more specifically, Russia, Georgia, and Poland. For whatever reason, it appears that the Gates Foundation is trying to present this information as though it is either novel or discovered by them. It wasn’t. It has been around for decades. I first learned of it from a BBC documentary that was produced in 1997.

One might be forgiven for thinking that someone must have had to drag them in kicking and screaming in order to embrace this therapy against the will of big pharma. Either that or they’ve discovered a way they can kill people with it. It is no mistake that [iatrogenic disease is the third leading cause of death](https://hub.jhu.edu/2016/05/03/medical-errors-third-leading-cause-of-death/) in the united States of America.

That disease, which unfortunately is not bacterial, is born from a highly-regulated industry that is hell-bent on squeezing out as much value from people as possible, while they are either being killed by their physicians, or being served with lackluster treat-ments that only end up making things worse. ------------
