CIDRAP >> Bill would ban use of many antibiotics in healthy food animals (874 words)
Brown also said that because the bill does not restrict the use of antibiotics not considered important for humans, farmers and veterinarians would still have many to choose from.
Brown's statement said FDA procedures for halting the use of antibiotics in food animals "are so cumbersome that such withdrawals would likely take decades."
