NURSING ANM AND GNM

Detailed explanation-1: -FALSE. Antibiotics are pharmaceutical drugs (requiring a prescription) that kill bacteria or prevent them from reproducing. They have no effect against viral diseases (e.g. colds, flu, most forms of gastroenteritis), fungal conditions or parasitic infections (such as malaria).

Detailed explanation-2: -Viruses don’t have cell walls that can be attacked by antibiotics; instead they are surrounded by a protective protein coat. Unlike bacteria, which attack your body’s cells from the outside, viruses actually move into, live in and make copies of themselves in your body’s cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Since antibiotics don’t work on viruses, they won’t help Samantha feel better. Antibiotics are only needed for treating certain infections caused by bacteria, but even some bacterial infections get better without antibiotics. Antibiotics aren’t needed for many sinus infections and some ear infections.
