In the 1940s, physicians at Los Angeles County General Hospital used
bacteriophage therapy for patients with cholera. This chart shows pulse and
temperature readings from a 7-year-old boy treated with phage. (JAMA. 1946;132:134-138)

and Giorgi Eliava (right), at a bacteriophage research center founded by the
latter in 1923 in Tbilisi, Georgia (then a part of the Soviet Union). The

Bacteriophage, viruses that target specific bacteria, are attracting
renewed interest as a potential therapy against antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
