falsehood when we review the widespread and immense outbreaks and incidences of
illness attributed to pasteurized milk and pasteurized milk products. (See p. 6-8, herein.)
Present day technology solved the problems of producing clean raw milk years
ago with the introduction of the closed-system automatic milking machine.
The CDC issued a report for the doctors in the California Department of Health,
reporting that Alta Dena raw milk “has been implicated in outbreaks of salmonella in
1958, 1964, and 1971-1975.”78[78] The CDC did not have scientific evidence to
validate this false claim.
As I stated earlier, the misinformation in the lay press has been initiated and/or
supported by the majority of professional organizations:
American Veterinary Medical Association, AMA, American Dental Association,
American Academy of Pediatrics, FDA, CDC, National Dairy Council, State and
county health departments, U.S. Animal Health Association, National Association of
State Public Health, Veterinarians, and Conference of State and Territorial
Epidemiologists
Not everyone associated with this elitist group is guilty of intentional malice and
falsifying statistics against raw milk, but the blindly ignorant reporting that is promoting
phobic superstition against raw milk is illegal and immoral, and is causing people
tremendous ill health. There is nationwide growing advocacy in support of alternative
medicine as a backlash to this. The public has stopped trusting its medical authorities.
Dr. J.M. Prucha, professor emeritus in dairy bacteriology, University of Illinois, said 55
years ago, “There was much opposition to pasteurization of milk and at best, it was
looked upon as a temporary expedient to obtain a safe milk supply until the time when
the dairy industry would learn to produce clean and safe milk.” 79[79] As I mentioned,
present day-technology solved the problem of “clean” milk years ago with the
introduction of the closed-system automatic milking machine. And, as I also mentioned,
raw milk that was gross unclean was not a danger.
