The new national standard will backslide
The producers of “Sinian” brand dumpling, which has been detected to contain staphylococcus aureus, a kind of bacteria harmful to human health, have apologized for the quality problem. However, it was also said at the same time that according to the new national standard, the dumplings can achieve the standard. Originally, the prevailing standard allows no content of staphylococcus aureus , however the newly-issued national standard allows an amount of such bacteria between 1000 and 10000 of one gram food. That is to say, although the dumplings can not achieve the prevailing national standard, the content of staphylococcus aureus can achieve the new standard. The new national standard will backslide.
However, the backslide has raised great concern. The public kind of panic at this new standard. As it has been proved, the staphylococcus aureus is a bacteria which can lead to serious disease and no matter how much it is contained in the foods, it will do harm to human health, although the degrees of harm may vary. The public can not help wondering when the science and technology keep advancing, why the standard, instead of advancing with them, even backslides? Usually, the standard of health foods will be raised in accordance with the science and technology. Meanwhile, the producers of foods used to manage to produce foods without any staphylococcus aureus, why cannot them produce them with the help of advanced technology?
The backslide of the standard about dumplings is not the mere case. Actually, the standard for measuring the healthy milk has also backslided by 25 years. It is estimated that in this way, the lowered standards allow a larger profit margins for the producers. As the producing costs can be greatly lowered any the profit margin can become larger. However, when the producers’ commercial benefits have been guaranteed, how can the public’s basic right of enjoying health be guaranteed?
