Antibiotic Resistance
-
Misuse of Medication
In Europe, the use of antibiotics as alleged growth promoters for food-producing animals has been banned since 2006. But such a use for antibiotics is still allowed in many other countries.

People also tend to stop taking antibiotics before the "treatment period" is over, and therefore some remaining bacteria can develop antibiotic resistance
What happens is that you only killed off the weaker bacteria (may be the majority of them), not killing all of the bacteria.
People may self-prescribe themselves with antibiotics, and since the disease may not be relevant to antibiotics.
