RE: Antibiotic Resistance - A Growing Health Concern #1

in #steemstem7 years ago

The reality is that doctors do just as much harm as good. They prescribe the antibiotics just to shut a patient up rather than educate. We have lost so many good drugs because people insist on taking them like vitamins.

Yeah, people tend to use antibiotics when they are not necessary (like in viral infections). I would not just blame doctors but patients just as much, as well as educators. There are a lot of issues that need to be fixed with antibiotic resistance. Cheers!
