Dairy farmers use BST to boost cow milk production. Some people oppose BST because it puts cows at a higher risk of infection. A higher risk of infections leads to more frequent use of antibiotics, which could appear in milk and be harmful at high levels. Milk from BST and non-BST cows is regularly screened for antibiotics.

If BST milk is not screened, it cannot be regarded as 100% safe.

If it is safe, then the milk has been scanned.

This is anti-supported. The stimulus explains that some groups are opposed due to the presence of antibodies, which can be dangerous to humans.

This is anti-supported. The stimulus raises concerns about the potential for high amounts of antibiotics to be in BST milk.

This is anti-supported. The stimulus details that BST boosts milk production.

The stimulus explains that the notable difference between BST and non-BST milk is the potential increased concentration of antibiotics. Thus, if it is safe for humans, it must have been screened for antibiotics.

This is too strong to support. The stimulus does not claim that a heightened level of antibiotics is the only threat posed by BST milk, just that it is one of them.
