    bacteriophages only infect bacteria, hence the name. they cant infect eukaryotes, or even things like archaea. also they target specific strains of bacteria, and only the ones that arnt resistant to bacteriaphages.

    How? Do you know how they work? What they are? You have literally trillions in your gut right now. There are literally more bacteriaphages inside of you than human cells and bacteria combined.
