>> Of all antibiotics sold in the United States, approximately 80% are sold for use in animal agriculture; about 70% of these are “medically important” I expected more, since biomass distribution is 62:34 for livestock to humans, the remaining 4% are wild animals[1]. So rather a 2:1 ratio. The antibiotics are 4:1. Livestock is fed a constant stream of antibiotics, but apparently Americans are fed a half as constant stream of antibiotics as well? Last time I took antibiotics was decades ago. What are you all doing? [1] https://ourworldindata.org/wild-mammals-birds-biomass https://ourworldindata.org/wild-mammals-birds-biomass
