Hehe, if folks could get (successfully) sued that easy for doing a parody, we'd have lost lifetimes of entertainment. It's a huge area for comedians and classic TV shows like the Simpsons (one of the smartest shows ever made).
And it's not your ordinary "internet joke". This (apparently) was made as more of an educational thing..., so naturally is not as funny as other things out there. It's just informative in a cute way.
Barely informative though, because it's about as in-depth as a book title, but still..., some folks really do not have a clue, and even that limited bit of info (like the trouble with antibiotics) might be a surprise to them.
Not to me however.
There is much more that could be 'preached'.

Parodies are actually legal under copyright law as i remember, though usually it has to be made clear who the parody is made of. I do not think you even need permission, but i could be wrong.

parodies are protected under freedom of speech. i think that if you are using characters from the movies or music (like weird al) you have to get the owner's permission but otherwise you are fine.
