Margaret King 1st- Antibiotics are fighting back

It is becoming harder and harder for doctors to treat illness' because of antibiotics. Recently scientists are saying that children with diseases such as cancer are more at risk than ever as infections are starting to fight back against antibiotics. One big cause is the use of antibiotics in animal feed. Bacteria in the animal become resistant towards the bacteria and when humans eat the meat of the animal we get sick. Doctors are saying to only eat meat that is antibiotic free and California has already banned it.

I believe that, although this is quite scary that the bacteria is fighting the antibiotics, it is good that people are becoming more aware that we cannot continue putting all of these things in our animals food. It is finally catching up and hurting us and i think it is sad that it has gone on this long and we only realized how bad it was once we starting becoming personally affected. Once we stop putting all of the antibiotics in the animals i think it will help solve the problem.
