Article Critique=== ====== When was penicillin first used to combat Streptococcus Pneumoniae and by whom?

Article draft=== ====== I can add some information about the history of S. Pneumoniae as well as information discovered by the researchers in the primary literature article I summarized, primarily about their findings on two transcription factors that cause upregulation and downregulation in four genes.
