Hi All:
Dr. David Acheson, FDA's new Assistant
Commissioner for Food Protection may well be
"both a very intelligent medical professional
and a practical
realist" BUT practical realists and good
scientists don't always carry the day in DC. If
there is 1 or more outbreaks of E.coli 0157:H7
tragedies Dr. Acheson probably not be able to
convince others that onerous rules are not
needed.
The impact of a couple testifying about the
death of a beautiful 3 or 4 year-old young girl
will be impossible for agriculture to counter.
Don't forget the big A--- deal a few years ago.
Reason does not always prevail!
Best regards, George
