I FIND THIS NOT ENTIRELY SURPRISING: Antibiotics in pig feed increased the number of antibiotic resistant genes in gastrointestinal microbes in pigs, according to a study conducted by Michigan State University and the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Agricultural Research Service. I don’t believe in this, but then if I set drug policy antibiotics would be more strictly controlled than cocaine, since misuse that breeds resistant strains is much more dangerous to third parties.
