41. Absolutely - the conditions

under which animals are raised actually spread disease so the antibiotics are used for that too. It stays in their excrement, which gets into the groundwater, which travels to the waterbodies and our water supply.

MRSA IS killing people - generally one at a time. I know a few people who succumbed to this.
You can no longer go into a hospital for surgery without concern for developing a MRSA infection, plus there are many more untreatable infections. That is a real consideration when deciding on an elective surgery.

There is now a drug resistant form of TB. This may influence what gatherings you attend. There is a drug resistant form of gonorrhea. This should influence people's decisions about who they are intimate with. There is a drug resistant form of urinary tract infection that could cause kidney failure etc.

The alternatives are already in place - practice good hygeine and develop a stong immune system.

The age of antibiotics is just a milisecond in the life of bacteria that existed billions of years before humans and long after humans exist.
I think you will find it an interesting topic of you read up on it.
