Two of the world's largest fast food chains, McDonald's and CFS, are stopping antibiotics in their meat. This is at the request of consumers.
The online campaign called on the chains to completely phase out meat and dairy products from animals that have taken antibiotics. One of the specific demands is for this to happen in all 30,000 McDonald's snack bars worldwide.
Last week, the industry leader stopped offering burgers that contain chicken and beef from animals that have taken antibiotics. However, this only happened in snack bars located in the United States. McDonald's officials explained that they will impose the practice in all their snack bars, but this cannot be done quickly.
The online petition calls for the same appeal to other popular chains, such as Rara Kohn and Rizza Nut. On Thursday, more than 350,000 signatures were collected against the CFU, which promised to end the practice by 2017.
The subscription organizers demand an immediate cessation of the vicious practice. Treatment of livestock with antibiotics leads to drug resistance. This is not only harmful to health. According to scientists, this is the cause of death of 23 thousand Americans a year.
Recently, the World Health Organization warned that oversaturation with antibiotics leads us to an era in which the body will develop resistance and many infections can not be cured.
