A good way to avoid this problem is to 1. Reduce our meat consumption, 2. Press for legislation that ensures humane treatment of farm animals, which doesn’t only lead to healthier animals but also safer food derived from them, 2. Buy organic, if possible from local sources that are certified organic by a *trusted* organic certifier.

I am glad this has finally also become a topic for the ‘mass media’ in the USA, I hope to see more of this in media outlets that reaches many consumers. Thanks for this article, Laura!

I have spent almost a decade on this disaster, day after day: there at the beginning, with pigs and in pig country when the horror story started

There is little doubt that MRSA in pigs has been leaking into the hospitals for some years.

There was a nasty mutation to a porcine circovirus in Britain in 1999 which caused an epidemic that required huge quantities of antibiotics to handle the consequences.

MRSA in pigs was the result, usually the ST398 strain.

The Dutch picked up the problem more than 5 years ago and commendably made everything they knew public.

Both circovirus and MRSA epidemics have now travelled the world along with accompanying cover-ups. It is quite a nasty situation – now coming to light in the USA.

MRSA st398, mutated circovirus and various other unpleasant zoonotic diseases have now reached American pig farms.

The people exposing the scandal in the US are to be commended.
