its inherently linked to the climate catastrophe. the collapse of biodiversity and destruction of habitat increases human-animal interactions introducing more zoonotic diseases. not to mention, though not as relevant, malaria’s range will expand as mosquito ranges do with a heating planet. on the bright side if antibiotic resistant bacteria do evolve: it will likely mean the complete collapse of the meat industry

Every so often I remember we'll end being able to fight diseases and the scare around RNA vaccines is slowing down their adoption. We're cooked.

not to mention animal agriculture also contributes a lot of antibiotic “pollution” into the environment which further propagates resistance
