      My principle objective is to stop bacteria which have already infected a human host from releasing toxic or harmful substances. Hopefully, this will reduce the level of illness and help the immune system to clear the infection on its own.

      This shouldn’t produce resistance as we are not looking to kill the bacteria, and the strategy should also not affect other bacteria living with the host (often known as “good” bacteria).
