A good example of how the unregulated use of antibiotics has given us a very scary situation (I'm not talking about people with an infection to be cleared but the use of AB's on people with no infecti ... Investor, infectious diseases don't care if antibiotics are used on the infected or the uninfected. Taking a partial course of medication can contribute to the problem, but whether it's given to a healthy person or not is irrelevant.
A much, much bigger part of the global problem is the industrial use of antibiotics in the animal husbandry business. This is where 'dosing' is all over the map and bugs are free to develop in an environment of elevated background exposure to antibiotics. This is happening on a massive scale and is unseen to most of us so we don't consider it as a policy necessity. A crack whore going off her TB meds mid-course is easy to identify, and of course patients like that are a contributing factor, but they are much easier to get at than the pervasive industrial uses of antibiotics. | |
