Doug Waltman

Doug Waltman is an expert in salmonella at the Georgia Poultry Laboratory Network, where he studies poultry health and safety. He has been involved in discussions regarding the controversial practice of treating chicken with chlorine, a topic he finds perplexing as he points out that chlorine is commonly used in water treatment and washing produce in the U.S. Waltman emphasizes that the poultry industry is moving away from chlorine use, focusing instead on other substances to ensure food safety.
