Pssst. If it is a VIRUS, antibiotics won't kill it, actually a virus isn't 100% alive, and that is why. This is why there is no cure for the cold or flu, they are viruses. If it is an INFECTION (from BACTERIA) then antibiotics will kill it, unless it is some nasty resistant strain. But, yes, there are some nasties out there.

EDIT:
Not trying to be a smartass, but I wouldn't know either if no one ever told me.
