1. Somebody clear this up for me please. Are antibiotic-resistant bacteria actually more deadly or are they just harder to treat in vulnerable People? Like would a healthy persons (someone who doesn’t take antibiotica) immune system deal with it without further ado?

2. Fear-slop content from the guardian. They bury the actual numbers a few paragraphs down to make the issue seem a lot worse than it is then don’t give adequate context to those numbers. Obviously antibiotic resistant bacterias are an issue but this article is fearbait you’d expect to find in any old UK rag and goes to show how far the “respectable” papers have fallen.

3. Over 60s demand them from GPs for everyday illnesses like colds and GPs give in and hand them out and it’s collectively fucking the rest of us. One of the many reasons I’ll be glad to see the older generations gone.
