| In case of infections only antibiotics can cure. | This misbelief is an example of mass ignorance in the hi-tech era that we are living in. Over an again, thousands of practitioners world over, have repeatedly and regularly observed that infections of all kind including the bacterial infections, respond beautifully to Homoeopathy and no antibiotics are required for most of such conditions.
