Poor toilet hygiene, not food, spreads antibiotic-resistant E. coli superbugs

h/t Instapundit
Antibiotic-resistant E. coli is more likely to be spread through poor toilet hygiene than undercooked chicken or other food, according to new research from a consortium including the University of East Anglia.
In Middle Ages they would routinely accuse Jews of poisoning wells because Jews got sick a lot less than Christians. Turned out, Jews - under religious obligation - would wash hand before eating. Later these habits of personal hygiene spread out. No more I guess - new Middle ages are here.
