FDA Says: I Told You So
September 19th, 2006 by Marsha JamesThe FDA is now saying that they warned California farmers that they need to step up in their care of making sure leafy greens such as spinach and lettuce is clean and healthy. They are now saying that this whole event could have been avoided but that farmers didn’t take enough precautions.
I just love how everyone starts the finger pointing when something goes wrong. They are the FDA, if something is so wrong that they fear for the health of the public aren’t they supposed to fine and/or shut down whoever it is to protect people? But now they want to play the blame game instead of putting all their energy into finding out the cause of the outbreak.
