Title: Misuse of Antibiotics
Author: Mayo Clinic
I think the topic is persuasive because it is a very serious issues that is related wit peoples consumer- health. Many people across the country doesn't know about this particular issue and when they learn more about it people they would think twice before taking any antibiotics. There are also many facts, data and statistics on this particular issue that it will help my topic more persuasive. The article supports the misuse and explains the consequences in details. It also shows how commonly bacteria such as flu, coughs, sore throats and ear infections aren't cured by the antibiotics but people take antibiotics anyway.
The data used in this article is supported by the factual evidence and it is mainly states the after consequences of misuse for example causing drug resistance bacteria. There are no other evidence in the article that will weaken my argument .
The author makes assumptions that how people misguide doctors prescription or doesn't follow doctors note and take unnecessary antibiotics they don't need. The primary text of this article could be the interview with the doctor or the book written by the doctor but I don't think it would change he way people interpret this article because it is a article by mayo clinic a reliable source of the information.
By reading this article I leaned some new hings and some things I already knew from the biology class. We learned about the antibiotic resistance bacteria and how it reproduces to grow more resistance bacterium. From this article I learned about the report from the centers of Diseases control and Prevention. I learned that many people are dying today because they had drug resistance bacteria in their body and couldn't find stronger antibiotic to kill the bacteria. Now that I have learned people are dying from these careless and unknown mistakes I need to make sure I create awareness in my community and save people lives. This is the first article so there are no connection to it. It definitely engages in the critical question of the topic and supports with the factual evidence.
