Human beings (and their animal companions) have co-evolved with bacteria for millennia, but bacteria always seem to be one step ahead.

Our bodies themselves harbour a hundred trillion individual bacteria, which is ten times more than the number of human cells that make us up – and there are probably about a thousand different types along for the ride.” - Bacterial apocalypse, Jenny Rohn
