Several posters on FM regularly draw attention to chemical pollution of rivers and inadequate sewage treatment. This article was in the paper today

An interesting yet alarming article Kev! No wonder we, the human race, are developing antibiotic resistance if it's potentially in our water supplies and food we eat through abstraction for water or irrigation in addition to overuse.

We don't hear much from the EA stating these facts Kev,yet it's blatantly obvious it's occuring,they have tremendous difficulty sitting these drugs out of our waste,if they can at all...
