Chick-fil-A's Change in Chicken Antibiotic Policy Sparks Controversy

TL;DR Summary
Chick-fil-A is abandoning its "no antibiotics ever" pledge for chicken due to diminishing supply, opting for a looser industry standard of "no antibiotics important to human medicine." This change follows Tyson's similar decision and reflects the challenges of controlling diseases in chicken coops. The use of antibiotics in food production has raised concerns about antibiotic resistance in humans, prompting WHO to emphasize the need to prevent important antibiotics for humans from being used in animal production.
