Thank you for acknowledging I might have a valid point.

As for your comments about dosing livestock: That's kind of like saying "We don't need to combat rapes and robberies because murders still happen and murders are so much worse, so no point in even talking about what to do about rape and robbery until there are no more murders in the world."

I beg to differ.

Sorry if it didn't come off that way, but I agree with you haha. Both problems need to be addressed in parallel.

Yes.

At the moment, I would be happy if we just began promoting non-invasive ventilator alternatives. I'm very concerned this is going to turn into the biblical plagues scenario, where the first plague causes the second which causes the third, etc.

I predict one of those knock on plagues will be antibiotic resistant secondary infections, many fostered by widespread use of ventilators.
