Agree that individual vs population-level goals often get conflated, to ASPs’ detriment
But even for #2, even at an individual level, a decision of which MDROs to prevent pivots on colonization burden, pathogenicity, and ∆ harm once MDR
This still puts Staph aureus and PsA near the top of the list

💯 The sanewashing needs to stop. Active disinformation does not deserve the grace of the "both sides" framing that legacy media eternally, fatalistically obligates itself to.
When that framing gets baked into the vocabulary of headlines and discourse, they are doing the public a disservice.
