THERE ARE MASSIVE AND DISTURBING ETHICAL, ENVIRONMENTAL AND HEALTH CONCERNS THAT MAKE THE INTRODUCTION OF GMO SALMON (OR ANY ANIMAL) HIGHLY CONTROVERSIAL AND THEY NEED TO BE FULLY ADDRESEED BEFORE INTRODUCTION INTO THE HUMAN FOOD CHAIN.

>>>>>Reuters, Dec 24, 2012 FDA CLOSER TO APPROVING BIOTECH SALMON, CRITICS FURIOUS  http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/12/21/us-usa-fish-gmo-idUSBRE8BK16O20121221?feedType=RSS&feedName=healthNews

Critics say the new salmon is a "dangerous experiment" considered as a new "animal drug application"not food, and have pressured the FDA to reject it. They say the FDA has relied on outdated science and substandard methods for assessing the new fish. "We are deeply concerned that the potential of these fish to cause allergic reactions has not been adequately researched," said Michael Hansen, a scientist at the Consumers Union.
