Yes . I ' ve been reading about this and following for literally years . Probably kindled by having to take infectious disease training when working in corrections . About 25 , 000 people a year die from antibiotic resistant bacteria . Car accidents , for comparison , cause about 30 , 000 . If you don ' t know someone who has died from this yet , you likely will . There are so many variations and recently an antibiotic resistant yeast has been found in hospitals . A few people on the east coast had a antibiotic resistant bladder infections that were resistant to all known kinds of medication . Not to sound too dramatic but the post antibiotic era is upon us . Millions of people are effected each years , tens of thousands are already dying . There are a lot of people to blame for this , but big pharma plays a huge role in their pushing the use in agriculture , overprescription in people , and the fact they don ' t develop new ones because that ' s not where the money is . Frontline did an Episode called The Nightmare Bacteria that I recommend , as well as one called , The Trouble with Antibiotics . Also , Laurie Garrets book The Coming Plague has a chapter I believe , but she also wrote about it b l o g a n t i b i o t i c r e s i s t a n t bacteriaandtheworldsperil recently .
