美國哈里斯民意測驗調查為美國肉協會(AMI)進行的一項調查表明,美國消費者擔憂抗生素耐藥性的后果,也擔憂抗生素在家畜和家禽生產中的應用。
When asked "According to the CDC, which of the following is the greatest contributing factor to human antibiotic resistance," only four in ten Americans (41%) correctly answered "health professionals over-prescribing to people."
當被問到“根據疾病控制中心(CDC),下面哪項對人類抗生素耐藥性有最大的貢獻呢?“只有41%的美國民眾準確答道”健康專業人士對人類藥物的過度使用。”
Eighteen percent thought use of antibiotics in livestock production was the number one contributing factor according to the CDC. Seven percent thought the CDC found antimicrobial hand sanitisers to be the biggest factor; 5% thought the answer was drinking water and 28% said they were unsure.
18%認為根據CDC稱,將抗生素使用到家畜生產中是造成這種結果的一個促進因素。7%的人認為CDC發現抗菌消毒洗手液是最大的因素,5%認為是飲用水,28%的表示不確定。
During a September 2013 press conference to release a report on antibiotics, CDC director Thomas Frieden, MD, said, "Right now, the most acute problem is in hospitals. And the most resistant organisms in hospitals are emerging in those settings because of poor antimicrobial stewardship among humans." In fact, he said that half of all antibiotic prescriptions given to humans are unnecessary.
在2013年9月新聞發布會期間發布的關于抗生素的報告,醫務部疾控中心主任Thomas Frieden博士說,“眼下,最尖銳的問題是在醫院,而在醫院,最耐藥的生物體存在于設備上面,因為人們對設備疏于管理“。事實上,他說,給人類的所有抗生素處方有一半是不必要的。”
CDC also said that it is important to use good stewardship in administering antibiotics during livestock and poultry production and that antibiotic use for animal growth promotion should be phased out, an effort that is already under way at the request of the Food and Drug Administration and a move that the American Meat Institute supports.
CDC還表示,在家畜和家禽生產中使用良好的抗生素管理是很重要的,而且那些用于動物促生長的抗生素應逐步淘汰,應食品和藥物管理局的要求和美國肉類協會的支持,這一努力已經正在進行中。
In 2011, USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service screened meat and poultry for 128 chemicals, and 99% of the tested carcasses were free of all of them.
調查數據也反映了各地抗生素殘留問題的困惑。十分之四的消費者(39%)認為抗生素的不安全水平通常存在于食品雜貨店的肉類和家禽產品中,雖然政府公布的數據顯示,在肉類和家禽產品中抗生素殘留的違規現象幾乎是不存在的。 2011年,美國農業部食品安全檢驗局篩選了肉類和家禽,進行了128份化學品化驗, 99%的測試胴體沒有化學品。
此外,AMI(高級材料情報)已經發布了一項新的、可供參考的同行評議手冊,見下面的pdf。
