In Europe, it's used to treat sick large animals, which are very expensive to replace. (Cows cost over a thousand dollars) In India, it is fed to 100% of healthy chickens to make them grow faster, because their immune systems don't have to deal with bacteria anymore, and so more energy goes into growth. The number of reproducing bacteria being exposed to antibiotics, (and therefore with a chance to develop immunity) is orders of magnitude higher with what Indians are doing than with what Europeans are doing.

(meta) I suggest to deliver a counter-argument instead of downvoting and flagging an argument you don't like.

Is this comment directed at me? I did provide a counter argument, and I didn't downvote or flag anyone.
