The irresponsible use of antibiotics in animal agriculture strongly promotes mutation 🦠 It’s prone to create resistant strains against which we’ll have no protection 🛡️❌ In a post antibiotic era a dental procedure will be life threatening 🦷

![[Photo] A hand holds a circular embroidery hoop with pink fabric stretched inside. The embroidery features the phrase “what doesn’t kill you mutates and tries again” stitched in black thread around the edge. In the center, there are four embroidered depictions of microorganisms: a red bacterium with flagella, a black and white bacteriophage with a geometric head and spider-like legs, a green bubbly rod-shaped bacterium, and a purple and beige amoeba-like organism with a blue nucleus. The embroidery is detailed and colorful.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:dhlt3n2oq3awmwefarhiros7/bafkreictntqtvmi4735ipoveaqdxv6sfzafuncn4uzpur4o3vvdqty667y@jpeg)

So I have an idea and I’m wondering if it would be useful for other people. I’m between gigs right now but I used to run cybersecurity (and other) projects at the largest law firms in Canada.
