the masses eat "rest assured meat", xinhua.com, Beijing, January 16 (reporter Zhu Haili) In response to the serious problems exposed in the recent slaughtering management and quarantine work, the Ministry of Agriculture issued an urgent notice to strengthen the safety work of meat products and let the masses eat "rest assured meat" According to the notice, at present, due to the chaotic management of some livestock trading markets, water injection livestock, elimination of breeding livestock and dead livestock are traded in the market; in some places, the phenomenon of private slaughter and indiscriminate slaughter is rampant, and illegal slaughterers have not been designated to slaughter and produce water injection meat, inferior meat and diseased meat illegally, which causes great hidden danger to the safety management of meat products However, there are big loopholes in some local quarantine and supervision work The epidemic prevention supervisors issue certificates and seals when they are not quarantined in the live stock market and the agricultural and animal husbandry market Some local animal quarantine personnel are also driven by interests and take the initiative to issue quarantine certificates and inspection marks for meat products endangering human health, which seriously violates the national laws and regulations such as the animal epidemic prevention law and is of a very bad nature 。 "Notice" clearly put forward to strengthen the epidemic prevention and quarantine efforts to prevent inferior meat and diseased meat from going on the market First, it is necessary to strengthen the quarantine work of the production area The county-level animal epidemic prevention supervision agency shall send quarantine officers to the township for the quarantine of the production area Before the livestock leave the production area, it shall carry out strict clinical inspection If it is confirmed that they cannot be sold on the market, it is necessary to supervise the owner of the goods to carry out harmless treatment, and control the dead livestock from the source to enter the consumption link The second is to strengthen the supervision of the circulation link The supervision and inspection stations of animal epidemic prevention at all levels should supervise the livestock transportation link and trading behavior, and never allow livestock without the origin certificate to enter the market for trading Third, we should strengthen slaughtering quarantine and resolutely put an end to the listing of unqualified livestock products Fourth, cooperate with relevant departments to strengthen market inspection and prevent unlicensed meat products from being sold on the market Fifth, we should strengthen the construction of the quarantine team and improve the internal supervision mechanism We should severely investigate and crack down on a number of quarantine personnel who are in serious violation of laws and regulations, and deter those who abuse their power, neglect their duties and engage in malpractices for personal gain "Notice" proposed that we should increase the crackdown on illegal behaviors of using clenbuterol hydrochloride and other illegal drugs in the breeding process First, we should strengthen supervision and control, and increase the general survey, unified inspection, spot check and tracking monitoring of feed and feed additives Second, strengthen the daily supervision of pig enterprises and the health and safety inspection of pigs before they are put on the market Third, we should strengthen publicity and social supervision, popularize scientific knowledge, increase the exposure of illegal enterprises, build a good publicity momentum, and seriously accept reports and complaints from the masses and enterprises The notice stressed that all localities should immediately carry out a comprehensive inspection and rectification of the meat food safety in the region in accordance with the spirit of the notice, and carry out a special strike action before the Spring Festival, focusing on the illegal production of inferior and diseased meat and the illegal use of illegal drugs in the breeding process, as well as the illegal and illegal personnel in the animal epidemic prevention and quarantine supervision team News background: the harm of clenbuterol hydrochloride xinhuanet.com, Beijing, Jan 16 (reporter Zhu Haili) clenbuterol hydrochloride is an adrenergic nerve stimulant, known as an antiasthmatic or clenbuterol in medicine, which is used to treat asthma, chronic bronchitis, emphysema and other diseases Some athletes at home and abroad take it illegally to improve their performance Because it can promote the growth of animals, reduce the fat content and improve the production performance, some profiteering illegal traders use it as a "secret weapon" and a large number of them are used in pig breeding Seven poisoning cases were found in Gaoming people's Hospital of Guangdong Province within one week due to drinking pig lung soup In May 1998, there were also media reports in Hong Kong that 17 people were poisoned by eating pig viscera The typical symptoms of clenbuterol hydrochloride poisoning are muscle tremor, heart paradox, nervousness, headache, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, fever, tremor, etc Clenbuterol hydrochloride is mainly produced by pharmaceutical enterprises Before 1997, people did not regard it as illegal drugs, but also used to promote it as high-tech products in feed and breeding enterprises, especially in export pig farms With the occurrence of poisoning, people began to understand its toxic and side effects, and investigated and dealt with illegal drugs such as Clenbuterol Hydrochloride nationwide, so that it was transferred to underground production According to the investigation, there are three ways for some illegal traders and enterprises to use illegal drugs: one is to make illegal drugs into small package additives without labels for sale by feed production enterprises; two is to make illegal drugs into small package additives without labels for sale by feed distributors; and three is to directly add them into feed or drinking water for feeding animals after being purchased by animal husbandry enterprises The above-mentioned illegal acts are likely to cause the concentration of local illegal drugs in feed to be too high, leading to animal poisoning The specific performance is: it is difficult for animals to stand up, the mortality rate is increased, and "life-long" remains in the internal organs of animals, endangering the health of consumers.
