Reply to comment by CalvinSays in New antibiotic passes through the first phase of clinical trials with ease by tonymmorley
Nobody here is arguing against the use of antibiotics for illness.
What are you failing to understand is that the argument is about the fact that livestock typically are given antibiotics for the sole fact that it will make them grow faster.
It has nothing to do with disease-related administration of antibiotics.
If you’re hung up on the “every day” part just forget about that. It was not accurate. But it would be accurate to say that many livestock are given antibiotics for growth rather than for illness, which is a huge problem.
Congrats on not doing that on your farm. Take your “farm animals deserve healthcare too” shit elsewhere; nobody here is suggesting otherwise. In fact, quite the opposite.

We don't even have healthcare for our own citizens.
