Although given how we've squandered (and continue to squander) antibiotics, future generations may view bacterial diseases the way past generations did.
i think necesity here is for to block third world from acquisition of new antibiotic drug. there is where new superbug are arise. maybe it kill many there, but it also save many American here in longer term.
in such 3world country, misuse/overuse of antibiotic are make for development of resistant. then poor sanatation are make for it easy for to spread to other persons. https://wwwnc.cdc.gov/eid/article/5/1/99-0103_article
"Developing Nations" or "Developing World" is better.
"Third world" contributes to exactly the kinds of stereotypes that this comment reinforces — the backwardness of poor countries, where doctors don't know better, science is ignored, etc. It's just not accurate; medical knowledge and competence is on the rise all over the world, among both professionals and volunteers.
no. i am not stopping. i disagree. i see not any inaccuracy. i do not work for AP and do not care what it say in style book, AP change style book many time for to please the pc persons. example, AP change style book for to say singular "they" are now ok: https://www.apstylebook.com/blog_posts/7
i have not in previous heard it "offensive" and am not changing because some person sayes it. i have been to many nation, those i call "third world" are backward. improvement you describe make them moving away from third world, not make term wrong, this is move to second then to first. i will not call different word because somebody say so.
Dude, it's not developing country misuse of antibiotics that's the problem. It's pouring it into animal feed in factory farms. It's doctors in wealthy countries giving their patients an antibiotic prescription for a viral infection because their patients expect them to "do something." You're not getting downvoted for using "third world" you're getting downvoted for speaking from a position of ignorance.
