Dear Hoffman, I live in the south of Brazil doing tons of research on AMR. I'm a vet and full professor at a Federal Univ. We have sequenced a few samples and found more than 25 genetic polymorphisms related to AMR from places near industrial pig farms. We can "link" AMR following these AMR genes in Hospitals, farms, water, schools, soil... whatever. This is 2023 and the problem is still growing.

This is frightening we are the farm animals

We're doing a great job at answering the wrong question. Instead of asking 'What medicines do I need to use to keep these animals healthy in this environment?', I think we should be asking 'How can I create an environment where I would no longer need to use antibiotics?'. No more CAFOs, numerous small farms across the country, grass based systems, etc. I work in commercial beef production. There are so many antibiotics being used both injectable and feed through. I've seen lincomycin that was labeled 'chicken use only' given to cattle, lots of off label use and A LOT of poor injection techniques. To me the last one is a huge problem. Absolutely nobody knows what the effects are of eating meat where a subcutaneous injectable was given intramuscular. Using dirty needles with burrs transferring all sorts of junk from animal to animal. Some places are much better than others, but once the meat is in the system the consumer has no idea which they're buying. This has got to change. I grew up not seeing or possibly being shielded/blinded to the issues that are very obvious. I've done this my whole life, its all I know, but it is time we upend the entire system. This is not sustainable.

When the first drug doesn't work, they just try another! My FOURTH doctor, a dermatologist, finally TESTED for resistance before we found a drug that WORKED. Over several MONTHS, the infection had SPREAD alarmingly, yet some doctors still would not even admit it was an infection, but insisted it was varicose veins! Now I have PERMANENT SCARRING as a result of medical incompetence.

I know this 7 year old boy that discovered the answers to this problem. He tested and retested his findings multiple times; ending with the same conclusion. It was easy for him because the closed aquarium systems he studied were easily isolated allowing him to observe propagation over multiple generations of wild caught show guppies. Avoiding loss of health, vigor, coloration, and loss of size of his show guppies was practiced routinely with great success after the second generation of guppies by using various breeding techniques. The most successful practice is to create maximum separation of both genetics and environment but inevitably new wild caught stock of both sexes need to be implemented. However, in the cases of bacterial infection treatment he observed that the stock could be brought back to a high level - competitive show quality condition, but that the treated stock would no longer be suitable for breeding. This was because the ensuing generations would degrade rapidly in health and vigor. The best approach is to eliminate the antibiotic treated stock then strip clean and sterilize the environment. He moved on to study carnivorous fish observing aggressive parasitic infections.

Being that I am 47, I feel like my entire life has been about company A having a product or service sold that was done in such a way, profit was the only goal. Then when enough people die, there is enough support to get a very small amount of change from that industry. The amount and quality of change and improvement seems directly related to how many people died, and how many people died horribly. That’s true of damn near every line of industry. And the people who run the companies are more than willing to have acceptable levels of loss, presuming it’s not their family or loved ones. The petroleum industry. The chemical industry. The pharmaceutical industry. The food industry. The flight industry. The airplane industry. The shipping industry. The tobaccos industry. The firearms industry. I could go on and on…. The one main thing that they all have in common is that change, impactful change, is directly related to who is injured, sickened and/or killed. Or in one phrase: Tombstone Technology It is such an extremely rare case to see a member in one of these industries choose to run their companies as if their loved ones worked for the industry and were customers of the industry. That’s a sad fact to realize!

Until these industries are held monetarily accountable, the profit motive for greed and gluttony will continue to drive their actions.

Soylent Green, Let's Go!!!

Seeing how many chickens packed into such a small space is why the chickens get sick. If we farmed differently the chickens wouldn't get sick and wouldn't need antibiotics. You have to eat 30 store bought eggs to equal the nutrition of 1 free range chicken.

This is an excellent documentary. You can also see more recent solutions to antibiotic resistance threats in "Beating Superbugs Better: Can We Win?", also on KZread.

I'm a system's analyst. The CAUSE of antibiotic resistance IS a SPECIFIC PRACTICE on farms. In this video, at time index 14:17 you see a video clip of a hog farm. Pause it and LOOK CAREFULLY AT THE FLOORS IN THE PENS. Those pens allow all animal waste to go down thru the floor where it ALL is collected in a ceespool. THAT CESSPOOL is WHERE the conditions exist to produce drug resistant bacteria. (Say that last sentence out loud until it sinks in). I'll explain: To produce a drug resistant organism, you need to provide an environment where the organism can multiply IN THE PRESENCE OF THE DRUG. The drug is IN the animal wastes and those wastes are allowed to remain organically active in a large container (the cesspool) where multiple generations of bacteria can multiply in an unbroken chain for YEARS. What you end up with are strains of bacteria in the cesspool that have been in constant exposure to antibiotics for YEARS and are completely composed of organisms that are progeny from those that were able to multiply despite the antibiotic's presence. Then - one day a worker's boot, glove, tractor, etc comes in contact with the cesspool material and then contaminates everything else it touches. ELIMINATE THE CESSPOOLS FROM THE FARMS AND ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANCE WILL STOP BEING A THREAT. This is a DISASTER that can be stopped and notice that stopping it does NOT involve reducing necessary antibiotic use. Stopping this problem is accomplished by stopping the mechanism that allows bacteria to live out multiple generations exposed to continuous antibiotic levels.Stopping this problem is accomplished by stopping the mechanism that allows bacteria to live out multiple generations exposed to continuous antibiotic levels.Stopping this problem is accomplished by stopping the mechanism that allows bacteria to live out multiple generations exposed to continuous antibiotic levels. THIS should be an INTERNATIONAL PRIORITY ENFORCED BY TREATY. ELIMINATE BACTERIAL RESISTANCE GENETIC CHAIN MECHANISMS SUCH AS THE CESSPOOLS!

Ferril pigs are a great substitute for industrial pig farming. States like Texas are drounding in these animals. The old practice of hunting instead of industrial farming needs to be revived.

Why is this post written so poorly? Public school.

Its over guys ! Say goodbye to your loved ones. When food itself becomes a conduit to your demise ....

he really makes a claim to have healthier chickens wile raising them and detaining them into a barn. what a joke of a man.

Give it to human beings to mess everything up, just for a piece of chicken...what is wrong with people....

Hmm, this vegan thing doesn’t sound that bad after watching this

Bad thing is that even crops are being over sprayed with chemicals and over fertilized, vegetables are not that healthy like they used to

well those animals are needed (grazing of livestock can be really good for biodiversity and managment of landscape that would otherwise used heawy machines that degrade the soil) so I´m really glad that in the EU we do not alow preventative use of antibiotic, we have high hygenic standards and smaller farms (less risk of animals getting sice and using antibiotic ONLY in ill animals). Also as we try to move towards more enviromental friendly agroculture manure from farms is the only way forward when we talk about any plant base food (as syntetic fertilazors cause eutrophyzation=death of plants/fish/invertabrets and poisonous water). So we NEED to have quite a lot of animals as a source of manure even if every single person on the planet decides to be vegan

Truth is it's not about the animals.

I think keeping animals like that is part of a problem

The first antibiotic was penicillin. It only took one year before ti was recognized that some bacteria had developed resistance to it. Anew antibiotic was brought out, methcillin! In six months Some bacteria had developed resistance to that. The bacteria were ready for antibiotics! All this other stuff blaming antibiotic resistance on people, doctors, hospitals, etc. would need to take this into account before reporting so broadly.

There are people who ask and get antibiotics for everything and anything. Little bit of cough = antibiotics. Little bit of anything = antibiotics.

Antibiotics resistance is globally concern...we must aware to patient using irrational using Ab...🙏🏾🇳🇵

As a society we need to advance out of eating living creatures, meat is just molecules in a certain configuration and we can work to recreate that without the middle man (animal) that feels and is capable of suffering as much as our pets.

or take the europe way of doing it-small farms that has cows grazing (sustainable way of not only growing cows/goats/sheep but also taking care of cultural landscape or as I have seen quite a few project as a way to manage grasslands in a national park that would otherwise requiere a lot of work from humans and achieved worse results(smaller number of criticale endangered species of plants and invertebrates) than letting animals graze there) or small farms with inside pens (=source of manure for plant base food production that we try to promote instead of usind syntetic fertilizors that causes eutrofyzation of the water.) High hygenic standards in small farms that only use antibiotic when the animal is actually sick-not the mega farms like in the USA that care only about the profit

I find odd that none of the good bacteria is even mentioned. Most bacteria is good for us and animals as well. Personally I think that even though the public don't know what's going on behind the scenes, that it's all bad. These companies are in business to make money and if they screw up it's going to cost them a lot. The report was good, but 1 sided.

You’re onto something

The fight against bacteria is going to come full circle... and the bacteria will win.

Aside from many things that might be said here, note that those chickens being raised in that huge barn are classified as "Free Range" simply because they're not in cages.

We have to stop the corporate gried in agriculture.

It's all about the money... so sad. You don't need data for common sense.

Bro. Vets as a whole need to step up and speak out about this. Strongly. It's a moral obligation for them at this point I'm in medical school, and if you ever suggested using "prophylactic antibiotics", you'd get rekt

for a long time we know mass farming is unhealthy. you need pasture raised or organic chickens that don't get antibiotics. thank you for finally after 70 years exposing this.

Ven if you avoid prescriptions and food containing antibiotics, we are still screwed- it's in the water to the point where everyone is exposed daily.

Someone very close to me died a few (less than 5) yrs ago & he was resistant to antibiotics, constantly getting urinary tract infections and he eventually passed away in his 50s. He was definitely not healthy. Extremely overweight and bed bound. He had mersa too. Idk if I'm spelling it right.

Read Big Chicken by Maryn McKenna for an exhaustive look at this specific issue

I used to love wings. Now, they're so big, they're disgusting. It's like eating some strange appendage.

We, as individuals, came force change through our shopping practices.

I see a couple of options with the food that this nation creates. 1. teach people to have a botanical diet which means no dairy products or meat. Products of any kind. 2. Change the way we do meat production in the world so that the products that are created go a lot further. 3. Develop new solutions between agriculture and the population of the world, and the people who regulate the industries that we rely on for our food. I am not opposed to regulations that actually help create more food but when the industry is so interested in their own profit margin or lining their pockets, that’s when I start having problems because I know that my costs will continue to rise as these people continue to make excuses about why they had to do this or that particular process in the delivery of food to my local store. I would welcome seeing a process where both regulators and farmers, and the FDA were to work together to create a safe product for the human consumption that is reliable and ecologically sustainable. If they don’t work together, then we are going to have a serious problem with some major fruit crisis across the world!

as a someone from the EU-we do not alowe preventative use of antibiotic, the hygenic standards for animals are much muh higher than in the USA (less animals get sick=even less use of antibiotic), also there are almost no "mega farms" that would increase the risk of disease (unlike the US)

It costs farmers too much and they get so little to grow healthy chickens.
