Is antibiotic resistance a personal failure of one patient? Resistance is a population fact about bacteria, not a moral score of one person. The number to keep beside that choice is 1945. Fleming’s 1945 Nobel lecture already warned that careless use could train bacteria, which is history of a population, not a dose chart.
