Weekly Overview: The Antibiotic Resistance Crisis: Is Farming to Blame?

ANALYSIS - A report published in the US last week on antibiotic resistance has been generally supported by the food animal industry, which accepted some level of criticism for its involvement and stressed its role in helping to prevent a future crisis. Some campaigners took advantage of the report, claiming it should be a wake up call for "factory farming". More cases of Porcine Epidemic Diarrhoea have been reported in the US but the increase is showing signs of slowing down.
