Here’s a link to a story that gives a bit more information, but I think is a better written, and more objective article (yet probably still a little biased). Dr. Huber seems much more reserved in the statements in this article, but the copy of the letter he sent is the same, it just has more info. From the article:
“But he cautions:
Although the organism has been associated with infertility and spontaneous abortions in animals, associations are not always evidence of cause in all cases and do not indicate what the predisposing conditions might be. These need to be established through thorough investigation which requires a commitment of resources.
I hope that the Secretary will make such a commitment because many growers/producers are experiencing severe increases in disease of both crops and animals that are threatening their economic viability.”
I meant for this to be an all post, so it’s doubled.
