| #12 you can buy technology, but you can't pay your way out of stoopid primitive Islamic misogynistic inbred behavior. Perhaps, if your family "tree" had a branch or two? But then, you might not look so much like Aunt |

| #5 This may not be food borne, as cases are continuing to rise, now around 1,800. I'm thinking a contaminated water system, somehow exposed to sewage. But with as long as a two week incubation period, it is going to be hard as heck to pinpoint. |

| #1 I tried to post an article about this a few days ago but it never showed up. Several interesting aspects to this crisis: unusual mix of people getting sick, fatalities and near-fatalities are more prevalent than for other E. Coli, the bacteria has a previously unseen toxic combination as if a merger of two other bacteria, it carries several mutations protecting it from antibiotics, the cases are are clustered around Hamburg. Speculation: is it a new jihadist level of war? |
