Gee, the logic here is rather astonishing! I wonder how the proponents in the industry would react to a similar plan if implemented in humans? Look at an example:
When you get a marriage license in Indiana you have to get a doctors certificate that you are free from STD's and TB. I'll bet we could save a whole bunch of money by only testing half of the folks applying for a license that show symptoms of infection, and then randomly testing less than 1% of everybody else. That'd reduce the spread of disease, right?
I'm glad out agriculture department doesn't run the Centeres for Disease Control ....
The plan, announced Monday, involves testing half the nation's 446,000 "downer" cows animals that cannot walk or that show signs of nervous system disorders.
