Reflection prompt 1. Did your article, or things you saw in your search
for articles, change the way you think about science? Did you see
evidence of scientists actively engaged in public policy debates, and
were you surprised by their level of advocacy?
This article did change the way I think about science. I used to think
that everything could be solved by science but in this case, science is
creating the problem of bacteria that are immune to anything we throw
at it. I did see when scientists used evidence in public policy debates
and their level of advocacy did surprise me. They knew about the new
super bacteria and are trying to make it so we use antibiotics less.
One connection that I saw was with business and how much money is
involved in the antibiotic industry and I also saw some politics and
how they are trying to make new laws to help reduce the amount of
antibiotics we are distributing.
Throughout this class I learned so many new things about the human
body that I don’t think I would have ever learned without it. There are
so many things all working together and if one thing doesn’t work then
the whole thing breaks down.
