27、 theory: they may have developed the resistance on farms, and not in hospitals.The crop protection products farmers use to control many plant diseases are almost the same as the drugs doctors use to treat infections, including fungi(真菌).

28、ured in days or weeks, they mutate quickly. When a mutation produces resistance to a chemical-killing fungi, fungi will jump to any host that provides a welcoming environment, such as a human body. And if the treatment for the fungal infection involves a drug similar to the fungicide encountered on

But this can take centuries, so we dont have the time to wait.On the other hand, advances in genetics have given us an
