I think antibiotics is a nice topic to bring people together though. We need big pharma & we need new antibiotics but the market isn't always aligning the needs of business w/ the "common good."

Disagree that it's a good topic - the primary issue with antibiotics isn't the development of new ones, it's the reckless disregard we have for all of the ones we develop to the point where developing them has become unsustainable
