Description: Agricultural industry in the U.K
 

Circovirus in British cattle - more 
  Pat's Note: A lot more information has been published. I will give the two sources in full to make them searchable. Apparently, this intriguing disease captures the imagination of Britain's veterinarians. It should be giving them the screaming habdabs and sleepless nights "Up to the end of September [2009], 37 calves on 31 farms have been... more »

Tracy Worcester's film makes Wilkipedia 
  Pat's Note: I do not agree with everything, but this is a major article and highlights the dangers of MRSA in pigs. It is on the agenda now, despite the massive efforts of Britain's hopelessly corrupt veterinary industry to cover up their guilt. [link]

USA - E.Coli 0157: H7 from petting includes pigs 
  Pat's Note: Interesting news report about E.Coli 0157: H7 reaching children in a "petting" environment in the USA. Unlike the British reports on the Surrey outbreak, informed by Britain's bent government vets, which initially carefuly and wrongly repeatedly avoided any mention of pigs, the Americans have come clean... more »

96 per cent of farm antibiotics are used in pigs and poultry 
  Pat's Note: "An incredible 96 per cent of farm antibiotics are used in pigs and poultry, the two most intensively farmed species. Even though there are over seven times as many sheep in the UK as there are pigs, total antibiotic use in the pig sector is over 115 times higher than it is in sheep farming. This is because sheep are usually farmed outdoors,... more »

UK E. coli 0157:H7 Outbreak 
  Pat's Note: As you can see, the USA is getting more and more suspicious of Britain's continuing zoonotic disease outbreaks "E. coli O157:H7 keeps popping up in the strangest places in the United Kingdom." You could not state it better than that. Whilst Britain is still listening to her bent government vets' bizarre... more »

Farm Antibiotics 
  Pat's Note: Too weak and a touch xenophobic, but otherwise welcome. The Soil Association are far too keen to keep in with a corrupt Defra. They should be running them into the ground. The membership are entitled to much stronger unequivocal words on their behalf. You can't do much sitting on committees with world class failures.... more »

Just in case you wondered 
  I went into hospital for what was really two operations on Tuesday last and came home yesterday morning. The operations were longer than planned - 5 and a half hours, but so far, it looks good, very good. I was sent home in less than half the usual time, because the hospital went on black alert - for obvious reasons - and they had no beds. I... more »

Antibiotic abuse - US and EU sign agreement 
  Pat's Note: Maryn McKenna on the move reporting on the increasing interest in the damage being caused by the wild, greedy and irresponsible use of antibiotics in farming by a discredited veterinary industry. The Task Force is the first sign of real external intervention and investigations into just what has been going on in Britain... more »

Hepatitis C from pigs to people especially vets 
  Pat's Note: Phew! The Veterinary industry is a dead end in more ways than one. "Research to antibodies in veterinarians and a representative number of members of the public showed that among the vets working intensively with pigs was the highest percentage of infected people (11%)." Read in full. [link]... more »
