美国民众请愿要求政府对抗生素采取行动

    食品伙伴网讯   据美国食品安全新闻网消息，近日美国民众发起大规模请愿活动，要求政府通过两部法律-抗生素医学治疗保护法案（PAMTA） 以及预防抗生素耐药性法案（PARA）。这两部法案通过后，有望在食品动物生产过程中禁止非治疗用途的抗生素应用，改善越来越严重的耐药性现象。

    部分原文报道如下：

    Like many other bills introduced in Congress in recent years, movement on the Preservation of Antibiotics for Medical Treatment Act （PAMTA） and the Preventing Antibiotic Resistance Act （PARA） has stagnated.

    PAMTA in the House of Representatives and PARA in the Senate would ban non-therapeutic uses of medically important antibiotics in food animal production.

    PAMTA and PARA “would stem the use of antibiotic treatment in factory farms and help prevent the problem from getting even worse,” he continued.
