The level of AB use in livestock in various countries is astonishing.
Most european nations have to keep a very strict log of which antibiotics are used, and for what reason.
Meanwhile, until recently India was using Colistin as a growth promoter.
Given the search summary of that one is "an antibiotic medication used as a last-resort treatment for multidrug-resistant Gram-negative infections", that sounds very bad.
