Welcome to the Pew Campaign on Human Health and Industrial Farming!
If you have not taken action yet on the Change.org petition, FDA: Take Measures to Preserve Effectiveness of Cephalosporins, please do so now. We are urging the FDA to finalize a rule that will limit the use of a class of antibiotics in food animal production. This restriction is a victory for human health as it will help ensure that cephalosporins continue to work to treat life-threatening infections today and in the future.
However, there is still more that needs to be done to curtail the misuse and overuse of antibiotics in food animal production. To keep you up-to-date, we will send you a monthly newsletter with breaking news and other important information on this issue. Be sure to look out for your first edition soon! Additionally, there are other ways to stay involved with our campaign: - Join Moms for Antibiotic Awareness, a project of the Pew Campaign on Human Health and Industrial Farming, which is working for more judicious use of antibiotics in food animal production. Since our launch in May 2011, more than 23,000 mothers, fathers, grandparents, and others concerned about their family's health have joined. We are trying to reach 75,000 by our year anniversary – please consider joining today!

Thank you again for taking a stand against the misuse and overuse of antibiotics in food animal production. We look forward to your continued support! | |
