Don't know all of the facts yet. Might be way off based, but thought Id aleart people here. Didn't know where to put it at, but here goes.
I went to a meeting last week. One of the speakers was talking about pink eye. At the end of his talk he mentioned about not over using antibiodics. Say like as a feed attitive....is there such a thing :?
Any how what he was pointing towards it there is a PETA
type group called P.E.W. I think that are supporting a bill in congress trying to eliminate the use of 7 of the 9 families of antibiodics. Guess penninselun is one, oxytetracycline type stuff is another, Nufloor...Naxel...Micotil is another "family" (for lack of better words). They think if people eat food with too much of said antibiodics that the human body will build resistance against such drug. Thus it wouldn't be as effective and be able to treat humans with ailements.
I don't have the paper with me now. The one poster had HR XXXX and S XXXX. Im presuming these are House and Senate bills. If this concerns you as much as it does me please contact your livestock orginazitions to try and stop this.
