Textbook Question
Textbook QuestionA 2013 CDC report identified the practice of routinely adding antibiotic compounds to animal feed as a major culprit in the rapid increase in the number of antibiotic-resistant strains. Agricultural practice in recent decades has encouraged the addition of antibiotics to animal feed to promote growth rather than to treat disease.
How might the increase in antibiotic-resistant strains of bacteria in cattle be a threat to human health?
