Medical Treatment Act
• Rep. Louise Slaughter (NY) & Sen. Dianne Feinstein (CA)
• Highlights concerns about resistant bacteria in humans
• Key points
– Eliminate disease prevention and growth-performance uses
– Defines critical drugs as those used in humans
• Would leave us strictly with treatment and control
• Gets introduced every year

Activists, Congress,
Food and Drug Administration, & the
public want to know and have a say
GAO report, 2011:“Agencies have made limited progress
addressing antibiotic use in animals”
• HHS and USDA have collected some data on antibiotic
use in food animals but these data lack crucial details
necessary to examine trends and understand the
relationship between use and resistance.
Today --- Drug company annual sales amounts
Future --- Use by species and the purpose of use
