a: biofilm ~
b: protective living cocoon
What:
"Antibiotics do not reduce the biofilm; they simply put it into a dormant state with a couple of bullet holes in it, so when you stop taking antibiotics, the problem returns like nothing happened. The biofilm is like a protective living cocoon, which quite frankly is an ingenious evolutionary survival trick, but only when it's being used for good, not evil."
