You seem to be so caught up in this issue that you just aren't listening. Here is my point spelled out again:

There are two parts to a legitimate campaign to fix this. Educate people on the problem and educate people on the solution. Why does this article only focus on the problem and then have an advertisement for her book?



"Why does this article only focus on the problem"

Because we already know what the solution is and it is described in numerous articles, books, papers and reports published over several decades. If you want to know what you should be advocating then read them. Please don't just say "So why bring it up at all?"

This article is just about the consequences of failure to adopt a solution. There is no requirement that every work on antibiotic resistance has to adopt the problem/solution structure that you require.


So the important thing is not to educate people on the solutions. The important thing is apparently to scare people. If they want to find solutions then they have to find them on their own by reading "numerous articles, books, papers and reports published over several decades". Is it a coincidence that scaring people sells books and offering solutions only helps to fix the problem? I wonder what the motives of people who write books like this truly is?

What a load of nonsense. I find it hard to believe you are serious.
