i believe A is the most correct (i assume it's about antibiotics - they actually DO harm our immune system in some way).
B is partially correct because, the colds indeed should be treated by anti-viral medication (because the virus is a cause of typical cold) but using antibiotics during recovery is needed only when an additional bacterial infection occurs as a complication after the viral infection. and it doesn't happen very often.
C - what works? antibiotics doesn't work for viral infections (colds). anti-viral medication do.
D i won't discuss.
