    They say it's because of spanish cucumbers that have been contaminated with the virus when some bio-fertilizer wasn't washed of the plants because of a lack of rain.

    Reminds me of the swine flu hype...

    E. Coli… It’s not just for North America anymore... Nope, the unhygienic growing practices which go hand in hand with mass production have finally made their appearance on this side of the pond. I’m sure it’s not the first time but it’s bad enough with 10 people dead in Germany and thousands sick that people had to sit up and take notice. Tainted cucumbers from Spain are supposedly the culprit, but they’re not sure that this is the only source ( And of course it isn’t) It’s just the one that was spotted.

    I don't know the real story, but it fits the agenda of TPTB. Destroying the benevolent farmers/ growers. They will say we are bound to eat more of Monsanto's genetically modified food.

    Obviously farmers suffer from that and people are afraid of vegetables in general now, both to some degree. I personally break that spell, enjoy salad every day.

    During the swine flu season, when an elderly died and had a little cold just at that time it was counted as a swine flu death. I bet it's the same now.

    It's heartbreaking to see doctors not being able to cure the victims effectively

    Using antibiotics and blood transfusions are their only weapons to fight this bacteria, as far as I know.

    Hopefully people will start waking up and start using MMS or other alternatives.

    in the above news story, the WHO claim that the e-coli strain killing all these people in Germany is in fact a new strain, never before seen.... does this not get anyone's scooby senses going?

    Cucumbers are EVIL. We must irradiate them now in order to kill the bothersome life contained therein.

    Seriously, wait for it. Just like almonds here in the US. 6 people out of millions that eat almonds became ill. The answer? Pasteurize and kill the nutrients in ALL almonds. Nevermind that 6 people can't even be measured statistically out of millions!!!

    The source of the outbreak remains unknown, though the majority of those affected either live in Germany – particularly in or around the northern city of Hamburg – or have travelled there recently.

    So why blame it to raw vegetables? And then, why especially cucumbers ?
    Are they too healthy maybe??

    Oh, sure....let's irradiate them. Much safer !!

    Us personnel stationed in Germany are advised to wash all veggies with bleach and water or white vinegar. The Robert Koch institute advises everyone in the country to avoid all salad, tomatoes and cucumbers for what could be months. Milk is out of bounds to if one is to follow the advice of the French NGO monitoring radiation levels emanating from Japan.

    It reminds me a little of Henry kissofdeathinger's writings on the weaponisation of food from the 1970's.

    Just need UG99 to show up now.

    I understand the cucumbers were organically grown, which usually indicates that they were fed with fertilizers made from blood and bone. Does anyone have any information to a link between this and 'the new strain' of e Coli? This is a very nasty bug, not to be underestimated.

    Yes, it could be a way of discrediting the value of organically grown produce...even making it appear 'dangerous'. How convenient for the Codex Alimentarius agenda.

    Solution: Make growing vegetables illegal and bring in GM foods

    I had the same thoughts. Modified vaccines are so Passe'. Why not create a new nasty bacteria that doesn't respond to the usual antibiotics, add a spoon full of scare mungering and hey presto we have a new super antibiotic miraculously created (and maybe tested) in under a week by some parmacuteutical company that can lobby the governments to stockpile vast quantaties........ I am sure I have heard this story before.....

    Maybe the new strain was released because Germany recently announced that it was going to stop using nuclear power. Maybe they were going to announce a better power source like an overunity device. Could also be a warning to Germany about something. Stop paying your taxes and barter for goods and services to stop funding new designer diseases and sicknesses that are made in a lab.
