[QUOTE="pdfangus, post: 1360003, member: 6543"] pulled from Lucky P's post. the warning signs have been out there for decades....we all knew it was coming sooner or later.... the issue is the fading efficacy of antibiotics in humans. never mind that there is rampant misuse among the public both by citizens and physicians. When it became common knowledge to the public that livestock producers( far less than 1 % of the population) were daily feeding antibiotics to livestock, who do you think will get the blame.... This is magnified by producers who do misuse antibiotics....... decades ago testing was developed to monitor antibiotics in milk..... it was developed to combat the real problem of having antibiotics in milk.... eventually the penalties got so severe when caught, that the problem has abated greatly. If producers insist on doing it their own way and government be d____ed then there will be more and tougher regulations in the future which will extend to injectables. Don't take pride in being a bad acter....don't contribute to the problem....use antibiotic properly ....get BQA certified...do what is right..... If we do not....I foresee a time when the vet will have to administer antibiotics for you.... We have to remember that agriculture is less than 2% of the american population and when the consumer turns against you, you will not win.... neither will the consumer but they are too stupid to realize that....
