Izinkampani Zezempilo Yezilwane Ziqondise Izindlela Zokwehlisa Ukumelana Nama-Antimicrobial

Ukumelana nemithi elwa namagciwane kuyinselelo ethi "Impilo Eyodwa" edinga umzamo kuyo yonke imikhakha yezempilo yabantu neyezilwane, kusho uPatricia Turner, umongameli weWorld Veterinary Association.

Ukwakhiwa kwemithi yokugoma eyi-100 ngo-2025 kwakungesinye sezibophezelo ezingama-25 ezenziwa izinkampani ezinkulu zezempilo zezilwane emhlabeni kumbiko we-Roadmap to Reduction the Need for Antibiotics owashicilelwa okokuqala ngo-2019 ngabeHealthforAnimals.

Eminyakeni emibili edlule, izinkampani zezempilo yezilwane ziye zatshala izigidigidi ocwaningweni lwezilwane kanye nokwakhiwa kwemithi yokugoma emisha engama-49 njengengxenye yesu lemboni yonkana lokunciphisa isidingo sama-antibiotics, ngokusho kombiko wenqubekelaphambili wakamuva okhishwe eBelgium.

Imithi yokugoma esanda kuthuthukiswa inikeza ukuvikelwa okwengeziwe ezifweni kuzo zonke izinhlobo zezilwane ezihlanganisa izinkomo, izinkukhu, izingulube, izinhlanzi kanye nezilwane ezifuywayo, kusho ukukhululwa.Kuwuphawu ukuthi imboni isiphakathi nendawo ekuhlosweni kwayo ekugomeni njengoba kusasele iminyaka emine.

“Imithi yokugoma emisha ibalulekile ukuze kuncishiswe ingozi yokungazweli emishanguzweni ngokuvimbela izifo ezilwaneni ezingase ziholele ekwelashweni kwemithi elwa namagciwane, njenge-salmonella, isifo sokuphefumula kwezinkomo kanye ne-bronchitis ethathelwanayo, nokulondoloza imithi ebalulekile ukuze isetshenziswe ngokushesha abantu nezilwane,” I-HealthforAnimals ithe ekukhululweni kwayo.

Isibuyekezo esisha sibonisa ukuthi lo mkhakha usendleleni noma ungaphambi kweshejuli kukho konke ukuzibophezela kwawo, okuhlanganisa nokutshala imali eyizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingu-10 ocwaningweni nasekuthuthukisweni, kanye nokuqeqesha odokotela bezilwane abangaphezu kwe-100,000 ekusebenziseni kahle ama-antibiotic.
 
“Amathuluzi amasha nokuqeqeshwa okuhlinzekwa umkhakha wezempilo yezilwane kuzosekela odokotela bezilwane nabakhiqizi ukuze banciphise isidingo semithi elwa namagciwane ezilwaneni, evikela kangcono abantu nemvelo.Sihalalisela umkhakha wezempilo yezilwane ngenqubekelaphambili efinyelelwe kuze kube manje ekufinyeleleni ezihlosweni zabo ze-Roadmap,” kusho u-Turner esitatimendeni.

Yini Okulandelayo?

Izinkampani zezempilo yezilwane zicubungula izindlela zokwandisa futhi zengeze kulezi zinhloso eminyakeni ezayo ukuze kusheshiswe inqubekelaphambili yokunciphisa umthwalo wemithi elwa namagciwane, kuphawula umbiko.
 
"I-Roadmap ihlukile kuzo zonke izimboni zezempilo ngokubeka imigomo elinganisekayo kanye nezibuyekezo zesimo ezivamile emizamweni yethu yokubhekana nokumelana nama-antibiotic," kusho u-Carel du Marchie Sarvaas, umqondisi omkhulu we-HealthforAnimals."Bambalwa, uma bekhona, asebebeke lezi zinhlobo zezinhloso ezilandelekayo futhi inqubekela phambili kuze kube manje ikhombisa ukuthi izinkampani zezempilo zezilwane ziwuthatha ngokungathi sína kangakanani umthwalo wethu wokubhekana nale nselelo ehlangene, ebeka engcupheni izimpilo nezimpilo emhlabeni jikelele."
  
Imboni iphinde yethula uchungechunge lweminye imikhiqizo yokuvimbela enomthelela emazingeni aphansi esifo semfuyo, ukunciphisa isidingo sama-antibiotics kwezolimo zezilwane, kusho ukukhululwa.
 
Izinkampani zezempilo yezilwane zenze amathuluzi amasha ayi-17 okuxilonga kwabangama-20 ukusiza odokotela bezilwane bavimbele, babone futhi belaphe izifo zezilwane kusenesikhathi, kanye nezithako zokudla eziyisikhombisa ezithuthukisa amasosha omzimba.
 
Uma kuqhathaniswa, lo mkhakha ulethe ama-antibiotic amasha amathathu emakethe ngesikhathi esifanayo, okubonisa ukwanda kokutshalwa kwezimali ekuthuthukiseni imikhiqizo evimbela ukugula kanye nesidingo sama-antibiotics kwasekuqaleni, kusho i-Healthfor Animals.
 
Kule minyaka emibili edlule, imboni isiqeqeshe ongoti bezilwane abangaphezu kuka-650,000 futhi yahlinzeka ngemali engaphezu kwezigidi ezingu-6.5 zamarandi emifundazweni kubafundi bezilwane.
 
Umhlahlandlela Wokunciphisa Isidingo Semithi Elwa Namagciwane awugcini nje ngokubeka imigomo yokwandisa ucwaningo nentuthuko, kodwa futhi ugxile ezindleleni ze-One Health, ukuxhumana, ukuqeqeshwa kwezilwane kanye nokwabelana ngolwazi.Umbiko olandelayo wenqubekelaphambili kulindeleke ngo-2023.
