Antibiotic resistance is the greatest health risk we all face. We are entering a new era where antibiotics - a miracle cure that our ancestors could only have dreamed of - no longer work because we have abused, overused and wasted them. The worst excesses are in industrial factory farms which globally account for well over half of all antibiotic use. We are throwing away something of immeasurable value just so that industrial meat producers can keep animals in squalid conditions they couldn't otherwise survive. All that 'cheap' meat won't seem so cheap when our loved ones begin dying of routine infections thebureauinvestigates.com/stories/2025-0…
