Nation States Issues : Resistance Is Fertile

Today I’ve got this Issue on my Nationstates (nationstates.net)

Resistance Is Fertile

An outbreak of an antibiotic-resistant super-bacterium has killed five people in CAPITAL, and epidemiologists are linking the emergence of this strain to contaminated chicken meat from poultry given regular doses of antibiotics. Health officials, farmers and consumers are searching for solutions to prevent another outbreak.

I’ve encountered with many choices

1. “There’s a simple solution,” says Jake Cheyney, head of the NATIONSNAME Public Health Board. “Ban antibiotic use on animals. Antibiotic overuse promotes drug-resistant bacteria, and the chemicals involved are also tainting the food chain. If animals get sick, cull them. Super-bugs will be a thing of the past!”

2. “The government must not do that!” shouts Yui Shiomi, Head Poultry Butcher at ChickensBoxed Inc. “We will lose revenue and efficiency! We raise thousands of birds here and antibiotics allow us more meat per unit, more units per square metre and more units per CURRENCY. You should allow us to use whatever drugs we need to keep the farming industry strong!”

3. “Does anyone forget to mention why chickens get sick?” asks young farmer Wil Barnes, as he pets Mrs. Tweedy, the favourite of his five chickens. “It’s because they are cooped up in cages, unable to move, to develop their bodies, and exercise. The solution is for free-range farming to be mandatory. Meat will then be fresher, healthier and better tasting. We’ll need more room, of course, so perhaps the government could donate us some city parks to convert?”

4. “Wait a minute! Has anybody thought about the little guy here? By which I mean, the poor, destitute pharmaceuticals industry?” questions Big Pharma executive Max Nguyen, as he steps off his private jet. “If you block out sales, our profits will fall by several percent, and jobs will be lost. Perhaps instead subsidise investment into the NEXT generation of antibiotics? That way farmers can use antibiotics all day long, and we’ll likely still have new tools to treat sick patients with.”
