Evolution in action

Here we go. Don't need to explain what's going on, as the narrator breaks it down:

Frightening that a bacteria can evolve resistance to a thousandfold increase of an antibiotic within a fortnight.

Awesome demonstration of micro-evolution and how scary the over use of antibiotics is.

Yah, makes me think we're likely long overdue for a pandemic of some sort...

Need to cut way down on antibiotic use in animals.

[FONT=&quot]Approximately 80 percent of the antibiotics sold in the United States are used in meat and poultry production.2[/FONT] [FONT=&quot] The vast majority is used on healthy animals to promote growth, or prevent disease in crowded or unsanitary conditions

BTW, ya'll know evolution is a myth. Don't you?[/FONT]

Of natural selection, the very process which drives evolution.

Something that has never happened during the 6000 year history of the earth.

If man hunts a species to extinction, how is that not natural selection? We always remove "man" from every equation. Just because we are at the top of the food chain?

Personally, I believe in evolution of species. Life finds a way.
