At the rate we use antibiotics, bacteria can become immune to the drug. Bacteria reproduce fast, which enables them to create new generations after new generations. This causes them to be able to change and or go through evolution faster. This will cause them to become immune faster. Then antibiotics will have no use. The restriction of this drug will slow down the effect of immunity of the bacteria, thus helping save more lives. As bacteria become more immune, they become stronger and cause more bacterial infections. Restricting the use could lessen the incidences of bacterial infections. Overall, the restricting of antibiotics is the way to go. As a society, we should focus on prevention actions, with the use of regulations we can stop a problem before it occurs. The advantages of restricting antibiotic use overweigh the …show more content…
Bacteria can reproduce fast, thus allowing evolution to occur faster. Bacteria can evolve immunity over many of the antibiotics. Once this happens, the antibiotics are useless. I truly believe we must stop this problem before it becomes a reality. Lives will be at risk. Also, I believe we must get this topic involved within the public population. Our society focuses more on treatment rather than prevention. No one tells you what to do not to get cancer, but rather what to do when you have cancer. We need to prevent the bacteria from becoming immune, we should not wait for that to happen and then treat it. We need to prevent this problem from occurring and make use of it as an example for future events. This is a real problem and it needs to be known and
