This seems like a typical media scare story. There has always been antibiotic resistant bacteria. And, we have continually come up with stronger antibiotics. This is based on the bacteria that was discovered and talked about all over the media recently. I am sorry- do you remember the panic the media caused with H1N1, the bird flu, SARS, now whooping cough, and oh soon we won't be able to use antibiotics.

 

IMHO, we have enough to worry about- I would not put this on your radar...

I agree, especially in light of the fact that they have been feeding livestock abx as a regular part of their diet for years...

Oh, Peglem and that's NOT a good idea. Don't get me started on that!

Of course, who but a dummy feeds corn to cows? THEY DIE!

But I would not dismiss this story outright. If it's a warning, let it warn.

All the more reason to research whatever it is our kids have and find the underlying causes .Someday, If we can EFFECTIVELY and EFFICIENTLY treat the underlying causes and fix the immune system, our kids would not need to live on antibiotics.
