This is not my issue with this post. There *are* many problems with antibiotics, I'm aware of them. My issue is that this post is patronizing.
"Antibiotics are not candies" is a patronizing sentence. It compares antibiotics misuse to carefree candy eating. This suggests adults who misuse medicines are like irresponsible children.
And it's not the first time this official EU account sounds patronizing.
