    The only reason antibiotic resistant germs are different than regular germs is that antibiotics don’t work on them, which doesn’t matter if you don’t use antibiotics!

    What? Where do you think antibiotic-resistant bacteria come from?

      No I think they mean that germs are germs, if you don’t use antibiotics, they make you sick either way.

      Resistant bacteria are only a concern of people wiling to take antibiotics, as those are the only ones the antibiotics don’t work on.
