Pat's Note: The net is closing fast now.
Classic British veterinary "Blame someone else, preferably innocent."
However, the odd shaft of light shines through the vetocratic darkness
and associated crime wave.
"Meanwhile, other experts are warning that increasing use of the drugs
on farms poses a threat to people. Recent studies have shown that the
overuse of antibiotics in intensive livestock farming could lead to
the evolution of strains of dangerous bacteria, including MRSA, E coli
and salmonella, that are resistant to some of the strongest
antibiotics. An increasing body of evidence shows they can spread from
farms to farm workers and their families as well as to consumers
through affected meat.
Farms in the UK are not supposed to use antibiotics on routinely, as
happens in many non-EU countries, but the Guardian has uncovered clear
problems with this regime as the current monitoring of usage does not
give government regulators enough information to decide how the drugs
are used in practice.
Antibiotics are routinely dumped into animal feed in the US – where
80% of antibiotics are used for animals – and Latin America and other
regions because they help animals put on weight faster."
Britain's corrupt government veterinarians are not going to get away
with that. The Americans are not that daft. DNA tracing will bring the
culprits down.

Caught again Pat. You really should read that on which you comment

before libelling vets.
Where does it say the vets are blaming anyone?

are routinely dumped into animal feed in the US". I certainly find the
idea that our vets could have any influence at all on the content of US
animal feed somewhat far fetched, but I suppose it is what one has to
expect from you.
