On: Australia's overuse of antibiotics driving rate of drug-resistant infections

[defrost]

Seems a bit rough and ready, why not use a more granular map:

https://journals.plos.org/globalpublichealth/article/figure?...

or read through the two major cited articles:

Mulchandani et al. (2023) Global trends in antimicrobial use in food-producing animals: 2020 to 2030 https://journals.plos.org/globalpublichealth/article?id=10.1...

Delia Grace (2015) Review of Evidence on Antimicrobial Resistance and Animal Agriculture in Developing Countries https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/57a0897e40f0b...

There's some devil in the details, of course, are the antimicrobials used in animals the same as those used in humans? ie. Does increasing resistance in animals to X product result in resistance to Y product as used in humans?

Australia thinks it has the right solution here: https://www.amr.gov.au/about-amr/amr-australia/animal-health

Food labeling is often limited to country of origin. I don't see how a more granular map is helpful.
