A51：Doctors have long suspected that secondary infections............................
In this argument, the arguer concludes that all patients who are diagnosed with muscle strain would be well advised to take antibiotics as part of their treatment. To support the conclusion, the arguer points out that the recuperation time of patients who took antibiotics regularly was, on average, 40 percent quicker than typically expected. In addition, the arguer reason that the recuperation time of patients took sugar pills was not significantly reduced. The argument suffers from several critical fallacies.

First, the argument is based on a false analogy. Many aspects of the study are vague. The author does not inform us about the severity of injuries, the age, the physical conditions of the two groups. We can’t begs question that the patients in the first group may be much more younger than the second group or the physiological functions of the patients in the first group are much more superior than the second group. Thus, the recuperation time of the patients in the first group greatly diminishes. Otherwise, the arguer ignores other aspects like the age and the gender, the domicile of the patients. Moreover, there might be other differences between treatments offered by the two doctors. Dr. Newland who specialized in sports medicine may be more professional. So we can’t ignore that his high specialty or a more effective training may make his patient recover quickly. The two points above weaken the argument.

Second, the arguer
commits a fallacy of hasty generalization
even if the background of the patients and doctors show little difference, the sugar pills may cause negative effects on the healing of the second group of patients. Moreover, not all patients with muscle strain are suitable to taking antibiotics. The antibiotics may cause allergic reactions to some patients. What’s worse, they may cause the allergic shock that will put patients at risk. Moreover, the patients who have Liver or Kidney Dysfunction may be unsuitable to take antibiotics.

Third, another flaw that weakens this argument is that not all patients who are diagnosed with muscle strain will suffer from secondary infections. The arguer gives no evidence about the incidence rate of the secondary infections. Therefore it is assertive to conclude that all patients who are diagnosed with muscle strain would be well advised to take antibiotics as a part of their treatment.

To sum up, the conclusion lacks credibility because the evidence cited in the analysis does not lend strong support to what the arguer maintains. To strengthen the argument, the arguer would have to provide more evidence concerning the background of the patients and the incidence rate of the secondary infections.
