….Since the resistance was found in humans in

relatively few cases – when compared to animals,

that is – it looks probable that this type of

resistance originated in animals and was

transferred to humans, explained the Prof

Jianzhong Shen, one of the authors of the

research and attached to the Beijing

Advanced Innovation Center for Food

Nutrition and Animal Health at the China

Agricultural University.

Tues., Jan. 5, 2016The alarming drug-resistance gene MCR-1 that was first detected in China in November has been found in meat sold in Ontario in 2010, the Star has learned. The gene grants bacteria like E. coli resistance to colistin, a powerful antibiotic of last resort.

March 4, 2015McDonald’s U.S. restaurants will gradually stop buying chicken raised with antibiotics vital to fighting human infections, the most aggressive step by a major food company to force chicken producers to change practices in the fight against dangerous “superbugs.” (Shannon Stapleton/Reuters)

October 4, 2016

A new federal policy aimed at reducing the unnecessary use of

antibiotics in agriculture may not be as effective as officials

intended — at least in the near-term — in addressing the

alarming rise in drug resistance, a new report suggests.

Beginning Jan. 1, the Food and Drug Administration will impose a

voluntary ban on the use of key antibiotics in healthy animals to

promote growth, a practice that is contributing to the spread of

so-called superbugs.While the policy is voluntary, the makers of antibiotics for

animals have agreed to comply, which means that starting next

year food animal producers will no longer be able to simply buy

these antibiotics at their supply stores. Veterinarians will need to

oversee their use.
