C.Diff outbreak Fife
Tue, 19 Aug 2008 12:44:02 +0100
Pat's Note: There are quite a few pig farms in Fife and Quality Meat
Scotland was running a campaign recently for more Fife pork to be
supplied to local schools.
Now let's be clear about this. I'm not saying that local pigs are the
source or that eating pork (except when undercooked) is a specific
risk, but we ...

I would appreciate it of someone would pass this on to significant
former members and those with their filters in overdrive.
It is time to give it a rest.
The constant attacks and veiled threats from the three remaining
"farming" activists are not working. I intend to continue the
campaign, come what may.

Danes confirm MRSA transmission from pigs to people
Tue, 19 Aug 2008 10:10:40 +0100
Pat's Note:
The Pig Site have just published a prepublication report from Denmark.
The Dutch did just the same four years ago in the interests of public
health.
Britatin ignored them, probably because they were terrified of being
indentified as the source of "piggy MRSA" in the chaos of the triple
epidemi ...

FND 2001 revisited
Mon, 18 Aug 2008 17:59:38 +0100
Pat's Notes:
The FMD outbreak of 2001 has suddenly attracted much activity from pig
producers and piggy vets.
They seem anxious to prove once again the unprovable: that the source
of FMD in 2001 was illegal infected imported meat.
In reality, it was almost certainly a live import that arrived slap
bang int ...

"Piggy" MRSA ST398 We're really ******
Mon, 18 Aug 2008 17:34:46 +0100
Pat's Note: This is from the blog of Mike the Mad Biologist. I don't
think he is as mad as he makes out.
If fact, he seems to be right on the ball, even if he English is a
touch colourful.
Given the near decade since Britain first started pumping its pigs
full of antibiotic to deal with the mutated PMWS epide ...

Disturbingly, no mention is made of MRSA
Mon, 18 Aug 2008 13:10:36 +0100
Pat's Note: This report comes from Malaysia, a country that with
Singapore keeps a close eye on Britain and its human and animal
health.
Malaysia exposed the attempts to redate mutated MRSA to follow the CSF
and FMD epidemics. We now know why.
Singapore exposed that the Chinese Restaurants in Newcastle upon T ...

MRSA - Pigs - even upsetting the Sioux
Mon, 18 Aug 2008 10:11:19 +0100
Pat's Note: The ripples from MRSA and pigs spread ever wider from
Britain's now infamous bent government vets.
I continue to be amazed that the British government does not step in
decisively. This is not going to go away. Things are getting worse,
much worse. A glance at today's British nationals tells us that.
