21 Dead, 2,000 Infected: E-Coli Infection Swamps German Hospitals
Even as the insolvent EU scolded Russia for daring to ban imports of raw vegetables from EU countries 3 days ago releasing the following statement, "The European Commission protested to the Russian Federation this
afternoon against the Russian ban imposed earlier today on all EU
vegetable exports to Russia, and requested the immediate withdrawal of
the measure" there is no chance that Russia will comply (adding insult to insolvency), following the latest report from Reuters that "German hospitals are struggling to cope with the flood of E.coli victims, Health Minister Daniel Bahr said on Sunday, as the death toll rose to 21 with more than 2,000 people infected across Europe....Hospitals in the northern port of Hamburg,
epicenter of the outbreak that began three weeks ago, have been moving
out patients with less serious illnesses to handle the surge of people
stricken by a rare, highly toxic strain of the bacteria." Needless to say, this is good news for the Keynesians out there: in addition to earthquakes, volcanoes, rain, snow, floods, droughts, tsunamis and nuclear power plant explosions, worthless economists will now have viruses to blame for "one-time, non-recurring" misses to their latest set of expectations.
From Reuters:
"We're facing a tense situation with patient care," Bahr told the Bild am Sonntag newspaper on Sunday. He added hospitals outside Hamburg could be used to make up for "insufficient capacity" in Germany's second largest city.
At a news conference with Bahr in Hamburg, state health minister Cornelia Pruefer-Storcks said local officials were scrambling to relieve a looming shortage of doctors.
"We want to discuss with doctors about whether those who recently retired can be reactivated," she said, adding that medical staff in Hamburg was battling exhaustion.
Bahr later told N-TV network: "Those hospitals with enough capacity are supporting those that don't have enough capacity. That's the way we're getting control of the situation."
Authorities in Germany are racing to track down the source of the pathogen, which has infected people in 12 countries -- all of whom had been traveling in northern Germany.
Reinhard Burger, president of the Robert Koch Institute, the German center for disease control, said on Sunday the death toll had risen to 21.
Officials believe people were made ill by eating lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers or other raw salad vegetables in Germany. Scientists suspect the source of the contamination may have been poor hygiene at a farm, in transit, or in a shop or food outlet.
Many of those infected have developed haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS), a potentially deadly complication attacking the kidneys.
The grissly details:
The rare strain of E.coli has the ability to
stick to intestinal walls where it pumps out toxins, sometimes causing
severe bloody diarrhoea and kidney problems. Some patients have needed
intensive care, including dialysis. It has hit women more than men, and
most of those who have died were elderly.
The resulting complete avoidance of salads may be good news for the stock of wienerschnitzel, wurst and spatzle makers. Also, a good time to short vegetarians:
Officials had identified a restaurant in the northern port city of Luebeck as a possible place where the bug had been passed to humans after at least 17 people infected with E.coli had eaten there and one later died from complications.
The proprietor of the German meat-and-potatoes restaurant told Reuters his kitchen tested negative for the deadly E.coli strain and none of his staff had fallen ill.
People in Hamburg were steering clear of salads.
"I'm a vegetarian, so it hits me especially hard," said taxi driver Wolfgang Roenisch. "I've stopped eating cucumbers, tomatoes and salad."
In other news, expect the "Hamburg Cell" to get a whole lot more press coverage in 5....4....3...

To be known as "Infected shit hits the fan"? Avoid Hamburg salads by never leaving the Reeperbahn.
So when Germany blamed Spain, it was OK to ban spaniard cucumbers. But now that it has surfaced the culprit is Germany itself, banning german vegetables is a sin?
It's time the german serfs riot and burn the Bismarcks and other imperial families.
Angela Merkel has announced "salad stress tests" in order to pacify the [dying] sheeple.
All facts point to the conclusion that this might be the new Black Plague, just what TPTB have been praying for.
Time to take your colloidal silver. While the sheeple pray to their Big Pharma gods and stuff themselves with useless antibiotics.
priceless.

There is no outbreak. Here's what's really happening:
1) Sick person goes to hospital (people get sick all the time)
2) Paid-off nurse/doctor poison's the patient
3) Person dies
4) Hospital makes a statement: "a patient died from ecoli/swine flu/etc, and there might be an outbreak"
5) The public panics, now everyone with a slight stomachache goes to see the "doctor"
6) Some of the new patients are poisoned, leading to more deaths, leading to a greater panic, leading to more "sick" and potentially sick people seeing the same hospital, rinse and repeat #2 and #3
7) The public: "do something! do something!"
8) We have found the source, it appears to be in the _________ (one or more random food products)
9) The public: "well, what the hell are you going to do about it?"
10) The officials: "uh, uh... we're not sure"
11) The public: "you fkn stupid dumb assess, take the products off the shelf already!"
12) The officials: "well, okay... if you insist" :)
13) There is a shortage of food, food prices rise, rising prices tend to be "sticky" (lookup that term), the government debt is reduced
Financial Repression at its most sinister level. Have I not said that these things are going to happen on a more frequent basis? This is exactly what happened in Mexico with the "swine flu". Also the Ecoli in the peppers. These people are not getting sick or dieing from viruses or bacteria, they are being POISONED.
Here's a tip for the Germans: don't see the doctor unless you believe in Keynesianism/Creative Destruction.

When the greeny Gas creating Bio reactors turn out to be the source we might just have to turn back the fukushimas on.

latest i found out is the culprit is a german factory. Glad they found the source.
What would happen if e-coli could be spliced into pollen spores and overcome the obvious mechanic limitations of invasive cell growth while successfully determining cellular polarity?
With the latest breakthroughs in multiplexed nanostructured microelectrode Integrated Circuits, could this pollen develop boundary awareness to a geographic location given geo coordinates? Maybe jooyorkcity?
Nah. .mil would turn off the satellites.
the majority of NATO countries have daily aerosol coverage, including dessicated blood, pathogens, along with the heavy metals. . . it's biowarfare folks, and all part of the plan.

So an outbreak of E. Coli has occurred in a city named "Hamburg" from people eating vegetables. Is there some dark irony here?

NO MANURE USED TO GROW SPROUTS

from the link:
oh well done, deep thinker.
Ever get your salad tossed by a German?
Better than a Chinese BJ.
Went to a water park with the wife and kids.
I saw a few Muslimas in full garb in the wave pool. Full freaking costume. Veil, black bedsheets.
In the FREAKING wave pool!!!
I'm shook.
They use human sewage to grow their food, just like we do in usa (zh- get familiar with hr254-sewage label bill...and call u're rep asap). The difference is that over there, they can grow anythng in it, where as here, there is a wait period. Multidrug resistance is a big deal- it means survival of fittest;stong bugs survived mixed stew of human waste+ pharmasuticals. Sludge/sewage is *not* organic.
Why Hamburg? The connection of this city to Al-Q is a strange coincidence imho (one of the 7/11 suicide pilots nurtured by Hamburg cell). Soon after death of Bin Laden too. Dare say the authorities have noticed a possible link??
No, the authorities try to work on plausible explanations before leaping to the absurd (unless they work in the Department of Homeland Security, that is, when they assume everything is a terrorist plot)
Yeah, like cow shit. Instead of moslem shit.
Here's what I've found....
"Meanwhile, scientists who deciphered the genetic code of the killer bacteria have discovered that it is a cross between an extremely dangerous strain from central Africa and a hitherto unknown strain in Europe.
Scientists said through genetic transfer, the new strain has acquired the capability not only to produce deadly toxins in large quantities, but also to colonise the bowel more effectively. The new strain is also reported to be resistant against several medicines, including some antibiotics.
Even though it is not uncommon for bacteria to evolve and swap genes, scientists are baffled how the African and European strains came together to produce the most aggressive E coli bacteria ever surfaced. It can cause the potentially deadly haemolytic uraemic syndrome (HUS), which results in acute kidney failures, seizures, strokes and coma. More than 520 patients have been diagnosed with HUS symptoms all over Germany."
Stop it!
Everybody just stop it and calm down.
It's temporary.
Even when two vastly disparate albeit distantly related strains of bacteria wed (Very, very far away from your immediate thought BTW, of you and or your distant cousin in Arkansas. And no she didn't post it on Facebook or Tweeter or whateverthefuck. That was John Edwards' peinis-photo, not yours or Weiner's.) they usually do so with human aide. Like in bio-labs. You know, sorta like Lyme Disease coming fro Plum Island, which is today recognized as factual.
But then again.... back to the main plot line of the missive.
It's all temporary. Including this. Because all bacteria, etc., genetically mutate over time, so it by definition it's temporary. And when any gubamint says so, they're Not Lying.
And there's an App for this shit, too. And probably just as infected.
Long live the Empire!
Current probabilities (educated guess, no data):
- engineered pathogen 50%
- environmentally induced mutation/recombination 50%
We check again in a week's time.
If this is bioterrorism, then this outbreak will spread rapidly throughout Europe as the distributor(s) do their evil bidding. If the outbreak is contained, then it's likely a natural occurrence. JMHO.
Unless this outbreak is just a test run to see how effective it is.
Assuming, for a moment, it's not a natural outbreak, i would call this fairly effective. Going with the terrorism angle further, if it were to be used again I'd expect a pause followed by a a much wider (i.e. not just Europe) coordinated distribution. The Rajneeshi cult in Oregon tried something similar to this in an attempt to manipulate an election back in the '80s, but with a much less effective organism.
What will be most telling is if the source tracing comes up with multiple foci of initial contamination with the same organism; that doesn't happen by accident very often. Since we now have multiple foods being impacted, if it's not occuring at a central point of handling (i.e. warehouse) the alarms should be rinnging as well.
If this was engineered, they'd know by now or soon. They'll probably have the entire thing sequenced soon. In which case, they'll see if a biotech kit was used to construct it.
It is already known and in the news that it was caused by bean sprouts. God damn tree huggers !!! It is basic practice to use manure (i.e. shit) as a fertilized in agriculture. When you put manure to a field in April and harvest in August, all bacteria life will be transformed over the long hot summer. Has been practiced for millenia. But when you pour manure over bean seeds and collect the sprouts a few days later, the bacteria life will resemble that of, yes you guessed it, shit.
a perfect metaphor on how humans can't wait for nature to do her thing and have to tweak shit to fit their desperate growth models.
And the link confirming BEAN SPROUTS as the source:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/jun/05/ecoli-beansprouts-identified...
the irony is that beans take nitrogen from the air and put it into the soil. if they would have just been a little patient and let the beans grow in the last planting cycle, they could have avoided having to dump raw shit on the fields. funny but sad shit.
Indeed. I recently read an article where one tree hugger had given only soy milk to her newborn son for ideological reasons. The son's growth, mental and physical, was severely retarded when he was taken to an emergency room some months later. Beyond repair too.
You would think a tree hugger would just give breast milk... oh well.
But a hard core veggie will not offer milk. Even from her own breasts, it seems.
You read one article and now you're an expert.
it was caused by bean sprouts. God damn tree huggers !!!
That's a non sequitur.
Yeah, well, any mother that just gives her kid soy shit instead of her own breast milk deserves to have the generational transmission of her genetic material curtailed for the good of humanity.
There are serious fucking reasons upon which the concept of natural selection was founded.

Spot on!
Ain't only the tree huggers buying "soy" . Messes with your hormones. Probably GMO soy is even worse for you.
I didn't realized soy has teats that would make it possible to get soy milk.
I knew there would be a Scheiße video reference here on ZH.
Love the wit here.
17 at one restaurant yet 1,700 sickened? Looks like there's more to this story.
Maybe it's a chain. In California there're chains called Weinerparadise, Weinerschnitzel and Hot Dog on a Stick. There's a Congressman name Weiner kinda stuck on a stick, too.
Sort of a German connection. Maybe get Sporutmushinabun? Sounds kinda Northern European.
The Germans did invent shit porn. Maybe those 17 guys ate a hearty salad and took a shit on 100 other German perverts each?
There is absolutely nothing conclusive about that report.
Maybe another lab release like the various flu viruses they release to test vaccines? Has anyone checked Bayer?
Calm down. The reason is cow shit. Manure.
Why? Because that is what you read in the news? It could be the reason or not. Little early to tell at this juncture.

But fear not. China comes to Europe's rescue:
http://www.larouchepac.com/node/18356
China Tracks Down Europe's Killer E. Coli Bacteria June 5, 2011 • 9:17AMVarious reports over the recent period have stressed how China is seriously entering the commercial biological world market. The success of Beijing Genomics Institute (whose main lab is actually in Shenzhen City near Hong Kong) in sequencing the DNA sequence of the E. coli bacteria that is responsible for the outbreak of enterohemorraghic E. coli. (ENEC), which has caused serious disease and deaths in Europe, confirm this.
Late June 2, the institute announced that the E. coli spreading through Europe was "a new strain of bacteria that is highly infectious and toxic." The researchers managed to fully sequence its genome in three days - becoming the first in the world to do so and lodge its full sequence on the Internet.
They also identified genes in the bacteria that gave it resistance to at least three major classes of antibiotics, which helped explain why doctors in Europe have had such a hard time fighting the bug. "We have done further analysis and see even more antibiotic-resistant and toxic genes. Our work is still ongoing," said team member Qin Junjie.
The institute later found genes in the bacteria that gave it resistance to eight classes of antibiotics. The newly identified 0104 strain of E. coli bacteria is resistant to major classes of antibiotics including sulfonamide, cephalothin, penicillin, and streptomycin. The researchers are developing a diagnostic kit to detect the bacteria and prevent the epidemic from spreading further.
BGI has more than 180 sequencing machines, giving it the biggest DNA sequencing capacity in the world, and a total workforce of over 4,000.
Ever try and get a Chinese to eat a raw vegetable? Aint gonna happen. Now you know why.

Put away the tin foil hat. The reason is that manure from cows treated with super antibiotics has been used to fertilize bean seeds. Just a few days before the bean sprouts were harvested.
No conspiracy, unless the cows did it on purpose :)
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/jun/05/ecoli-beansprouts-identified...
True, but take out the "super" in antibiotics. It's just your common antibiotics we've been misusing for the last 90 years creating all sorts of resistent strains (Remember MRSA?) by either flushing it down the sewer systems or creating them in the most advanced biological factory - our own bodies. Medics have been warning about this for the past 30 years.
Something to consider in conjunction with AAPL's link, this one 3 days earlier from the people who bring you common sense:
http://www.naturalnews.com/032590_ecoli_superbugs.html
Anyone ever think that this could be a bioweapon some sick former Nazi or Al Qaeda group tested out?
E coli..New strain..I think they are not telling us everything...
Probably not...but if it was I would attribute it more like to Al-cia-da or Al-queen of englan-da. (or is that one in the same?)
Though most likely as pointed out above by LaRouche it most likely is an african strain somehow brought somewhere and is now infecting from a new point of origin.
More likely reason: cow manure from cows treated with strong antibiotics was used to fertilize the bean sprouts. A mere few days before harvesting:
http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2011/jun/05/ecoli-beansprouts-identified...
Unlikely. Probably from beans grown last season (who knows where?). Not enough time to grow beans locally, harvest them, dry and process them, transport, sprout at the food establishment or local supplier of pre-sprouted beans and serve. Most likely somebody didn't wash their hands who was a carrier of this strain at the sprout supplier or the eatery itself.
you're awfully fond of "the grauniad" dude,
they don't seem to know definitively as yet, so maybe keep an open mind? while it's tempting to find immediate causes, so as to dismiss threat, and while I agree the antibiotic use in meat animals is out of control - this may not be that, y'know?
It's what they're using as fertilizer that's likely the problem. Perhaps they're irrigating with sanitary sewer water.
Excellent Point
It is a fact that most surface water in the US contains human origin e-coli... i.e. human sewage...
For farms surface water is used for irrigating and crop washing...
This brings up two very important points.
First, if the Europeans are doing this before the Yanks, then the Yanks have a "Cow Crap Gap" which immediately needs addressing in two ways.
1.) America needs more cow crap upon which to experiment to ensure that it remains at the fore of th Cow Crap Race. Hopefully, NASA will now release it's latest findings about alien structures and presence upon the Dark Side of the Moon, which is not comprised of Green Cheese, but Cow crap, the only solution for which is to bury them in more crap.
2.) There is a definite need for additional funding to essentially prohibit the Barbarian Enemy from repeating the same in our country. Thus, a new and enhanced multibillion dollar Anti-Cow Crap Program guaranteed to save 17 Billion jobs by April Fool's day next.
Long live the Empire.
Second, it proves wholeheartedly what Jean Clown-Junker was talking about when he kicked the stray puppy square in it's nut sack when he was getting frustrated with the lack of growth of magnitude and magnificence of the EU, because this definitely proves beyond the shadow of an enormous pile of cow crap, that a bigger, better funded EU bureaucracy would have not made the same error of judgement about it having been polluted cucumbers which were the cause of the outbreak, for all the cucumbers in Spain had already been sent to Greece for the EU bureaucracy's annual Greek Sex Festival. New stimulus program.
Don't getch yer hope up yet, folks.
junk. and in which lab would said terr manufacture such a specific pathogen resistant to 8 classes of antibiotics and why would they spread it in northern germany
what a mess that Europe has become
A shitty mess.
And now that the lab strain has been successful in it's test run, the TPTB are about to deploy the pathogen full scale, starting with Greece and Ireland.
And anyone fool enough to think they're safe by eating meat instead of vegetables will be served with the latest generation of lab engineered prions.
Can't afford to pay the old peoples' pensions, so release a bug that kills them?
+5... Accurate analysis...
this bug was created by the globalists as the new way to get people off of food stamps!
That is what you get when you combine public healthcare with public pensions. It is a double whammy for the state. Eliminate antibacterial research through the FDA and its European equivalent and the results will come even faster. For some infections, the only recommmended cure is fecal transplantation (eating your healthy relatives' shit).
Then until evolution takes its course ensure that no crisis goes to waste!
Nah, it's what you get when you spread reconstituted human or animal waste on fields as fertilizer.
And especially when you use manure from cows having eaten super-antibiotics for life
Yes andbeing fed GMO and feed with other animal parts in it. Bovines are vegetarians.
Humanure and "night soil" have been used for centuries. Properly composted, they make great fertilizer and are perfectly safe. Better still, they require less fresh water and are naturally incorporated, instead up being dumped en masse in our oceans and landfills.
keywords : Properly composted
Yes, recommend a minimum of one year and two if you can to just make sure. However, it can be difficult for some people to get past the eww factor.
Uhh, no thanks. I don't care how long you leave it. Human waste has lots of fat in it as well. It's not like horse or cow manure. Not to mention all the pharmacuticals that are peppered in human shit too. And don't get me started on the pathogens. Hep B, Cholera, etc.
BAD IDEA.
The composting process destroys every pathogen known to man. Breaks down pharmas and pcb's too. A properly designed composting system will kill every pathogen in less than 4 hours...Composting ALL our waste (urban myth that fat and meat do not compost) keeps our nitrogen local and keeps our springs, underground streams and waterways clean
4 Hours? Who's going to pay for that expensive poop composting complex? ADM? Monsanto? The City of Chino California?
Please don't delude yourself into thinking that using human waste is a good idea, when we can't even harvest the goddamn vegatables without accidentally shitting on them. Remember we're talking proifits and shareholders here, not consumer safety.
I was speaking on an individual basis. Take 1 inch hardware cloth and roll it into a 4 ft diameter circle, creating a silo 4 feet tall. Line the bottom with 6 inches of straw or other dry brown material. Cover so as to not allow rain to hit it. Rinse and repeat as needed. you will never need to buy expensive fertilizer again...

It's worked for the Orientals for over 4000 years. Does anyone know why it won't continue to work?
I'm guessing, but probably they waited an appropriate amount of time between application and eating...They no longer do it and look at the condition of their rivers now.
not everyone who shits uses pharmaceuticals, and composting your own waste is a good way of knowing exactly what "goes" into your food.
keep it local *wink*
In the summertime, 60 days is all you need in a "cold" compost pile.
Been composting our sawdust toilets for many years now with 0 issues...
And some people think septic systems are safe. Ha, they distribute waste below the level where microbes could break down the material. Consequently, the waste moves down into your water table and then into your faucet or well. Don't worry though, it is then treated with deadly chlorine and they toss in flouride to mess you up.
Of course, you can go buy some compost at Lowe's and put sewer sludge on your garden vegetables- because they get a sticker that says its' safe!
Anyone believing government scientists deserve their abbreviated, disease ridden lives. Pop those pills, drink that swill and remember- if Conagra made it, it must be good for you!

To the vegetarian taxi driver in HH...Salad can also be a false cognate. "Salat" in German also means 'lettuce' in English. Just thought I'd throw that in there in case I need a taxi from the Alstersee, hehe.
There were EHEC bacteria on Spanish cucumbers, although from another, less harmful strain.
It was better to inform the public about this finding.
Should the laboratory have kept it secret instead, especially when time is key ?
After all, we still think that this EHEC outbreak is just a sideshow, probably an act of sabotage by interested parties with access to biological weapons.
The timing is interesting.
