Subject: Antibiotic use in Agriculture

Dear Dr. Henney,

I am writing in regards to the unchecked and undocumented overuse of
antibiotics in healthy livestock.  This is adding to the growing
problem of bacteriabecoming resistant to antibiotics.

The FDA should move now to establish a system for collecting basic data
on agricultural antibiotic use in the United States.  The information
should be collected for both human and agricultural use and should
include the class, indication, dosage, and treatment period.

These actions should take top priority to prevent a future health
crisis.

Thank you for your time.
