    Industrial production: Agreed:
    I would say "not mixing effluent into municipal waste water" makes more sense that the orignial sentence.
    "Don't allow production sites to discharge to UMMTPs[, especally at development stage for new antibiotics]: alternatively, set discharge standards to UWWTPs"

    Hospital as hotspots: Agreed: collect and incinerate human waste for patients treated with new molecules.

    Hospitals as hotspots:

    Agreed: Known releases of antibiotics only used in hospitals, e.g. carbapenems.

    Agreed: Possible collection and separate treatment, or even incineration, of human waste (urine and faeces) for patients receiving treatment with new antimicrobial agents. [THIS IS A REFORMULATION OF BERTRAND's STATEMENT].

    Unclear: Could undertake regulation on release of antimicrobials and other medicinal products by hospitals and other healthcare facilities.
