"Questions remain about E. coli; Germans can’t confirm sprout link to outbreak" June 11, 2011|By Alan Cowell, New York Times
BERLIN — After days of confusion, German authorities said yesterday that they had concluded that contaminated sprouts from an organic farm in the country’s north were the most likely cause of one of the world’s worst outbreaks of E. coli.

Food Freedom has deliberately refrained from posting any suggestion that Germany’s superbug is related to biowarfare, until further evidence emerged. Various sources now corroborate this story, including The Atlantic:
“On Tuesday [May 31], the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung reported that [leading German E. coli researcher Helge] Karch had discovered that the O104:H4 bacteria responsible for the current outbreak is a so-called chimera that contains genetic materia from various E. coli bacteria. It also contains DNA sequences from plague bacteria, which makes it particularly pathogenic.”
Though he emphasized “There is no risk, however, that it could cause a form of plague,” Karch added that plague DNA sequences make the superbug “particularly pathogenic.”
Not only that, someone also has pointed out that Germany has pissed off a certain group of people, and now bad things are happening to them.
