Virulent phages can expose their bacterial hosts to devastating epidemics, in principle leading to complete elimination of their hosts. Although experiments indeed confirm a large reduction of susceptible bacteria, there are no reports of complete extinctions. We here address this phenomenon from the perspective of spatial organization of bacteria and how this can influence the final survival of them. By modelling the transient dynamics of bacteria and phages when they are introduced into an environment with finite resources, we
