But as for antibiotics killing viruses, there are now available by prescription substances that act against viruses and inpede viral infections. I have heard knowledgeable people, doctors and pharmacists, refer to these substances as "antibiotics". If they can call them antibiotics, why can't I? And they definitely ameliorate viral infections. Perhaps the question is a semantic one. If you're going to ask questions on a survey, you need to be smarter than the people you're surveying, and know what you're talking about.
Yes, I agree. I do think, though, that you'd find people who think penicillin will do something for chicken pox or a cold, and it's those people I was talking about.
