美国猪肉行业致力于负责任的使用抗生素

　　US - The National Pork Board has reiterated the proactive steps the US pork industry has taken to ensure responsible antibiotic use on pig farms. Pork industry leaders say calls by various organizations to end antibiotic use on farms are misguided and would have a negative impact on food safety.“We understand people are confused about the role of antibiotics in meat production and, unfortunately, recently released reports only add to that confusion,” said Dr Jennifer Koeman, Doctor of Veterinarian Medicine and Director of Producer and Public Health at National Pork Board.“It’s simple – when you produce healthy livestock, you get safe food. The meat you eat is safe due to Food and Drug Administration rules on antibiotics and US Department of Agriculture testing of meat.”

　　美国国家猪肉委员会一再重申要积极地采取措施，保证对养猪场负责任的使用抗生素。猪肉行业领导人称，目前各种组织呼吁停止在养猪场使用抗生素，认为在养猪场使用抗生素会对食品安全产生负面影响。国家猪肉委员会的兽医医学博士兼公众安全生产博士詹妮弗▪科曼(Jennifer Koeman,)说“我们理解人们对肉制品使用抗生素这种做法感到困惑，不幸的是，最近发布的报告也使人们对肉制品使用抗生素的困惑更多。其实这很容易理解，当人们养殖健康的牲畜，就会得到安全的食品。正因为食品和药品管理局对抗生素的规定和美国农业部对肉制品的测试，人们才能吃到安全的猪肉食品”。
