There's too much media panic about antibiotics.
Yes, they have been overused, but there are new antibiotics being developed.
Your point is well-taken - there is too much hysteria, and new antibiotics are being developed.
I noted one significant change at a doctor's visit - they've stopped writing RX for antibiotics on an initial diagnosis of bronchitis (which makes sense, as it's often viral).
