Should the federal government bail out the ailing auto industry?
jrigutto (anonymous) says...
If terrorism is such a big issue, why are we planning on tracking all animal movements but not the movements and associations of all persons working on or visiting farms? I don't think a heifer is going to run willy nilly about the country spreading foot and mouth disease. But a human terrorist could very easily. And as to the statement that there is no vaccine, that is actually an outright lie. Vaccination for FMD is commonplace in Brazil and other countries around the world. There is no vaccine approved for use in the USA because vaccination for FMD is illegal in the USA, just as it is illegal in the UK, which is why a FMD outbreak has so much potential to cause harm. It doesn't have anything to do with animal health or human health it's all about money. It costs the farmers too much to treat an infected animal, it's easier and cheaper to kill 'em. FMD vaccination is effective but it's illegal in this country because of our trade policies, and for no other reason.
