Absolutely.  I, for one, would be most grateful for this critical information.

I have been asking for this publicly for some time and the only reply so far was
that the antibiotic resistance used was for an antibiotic totally unrelated to
OTC.

If there is any evidence for your assertion it adds credence to the GM link,
even though it is hypothetical at present.

If not, such assertions only add to the confusion and misinformation
circulating.
