Doctors have been warning for over 20 years that over prescribing anti-biotics will eventually cause problems. Now we have MRSA, C-Diff etc.
You may think Doctors should stop prescribing, but they are facing violence in the surgery if they don't.
The public should be educated to some degree in the way drugs work, then, maybe we would not have such a problem. |
Thats the thing with the Lib/dems, they can promiss what they want because they will never get the chance to act on their promissesbootshak
