Resistance to antibiotics kills 37,000 Americans per year.

That's almost as many as automobile accidents. The loss of years of life due to antibiotics is going to be less, since many victims are old, while the victims of car accidents tend to be young. Still, it is a lot of people. Both of them dwarf the effects of terrorism.

So when are we going to ban the foolish practices that generate antibiotic resistance? For instance, regularly giving antibiotics to farm animals.
