Interesting article about a pig farmer who stops cold turkey all antiobiotics given to his hogs. His leg was punctured by a boar and it swelled to twice the size. The infection did not respond to antibiotics and it ends up it was a mutated form of a staph infection. The mutation it is assumed is due to the massive amounts of antibiotics given to the hogs from birth.
