RE: Antibiotic Resistance: An overview

I would say antibiotics leaking into the environment is probably the biggest contributor of drug resistance.

They pass through bodies, may that be humans or animals. Once the drugs are in the environment, they either kill off the susceptible bacteria or trigger their defense mechanisms. And here we are.

Rightly said. This is why there must be continued research into the development of novel drugs as well as how resistant development in microbes can be limited.
