AFBF Raises Issue with Antibiotic Proposals
Washington--Citing a lack of scientific data, AFBF on Thursday submitted comments to the Food and Drug Administration and the Health and Human Services Department on FDA proposals that would limit antibiotic use in livestock.
According to AFBF, there have been no peer-reviewed scientific studies to support the theory that judicious use of antibiotics in livestock increases antibiotic resistance in humans. In addition, there is no data to indicate that limiting antibiotic use in livestock decreases human health problems with antibiotic resistance.
