E. coli outbreak in Europe

The source of an E. coli outbreak in Europe that has killed 22 people and
sickened more than 2,200 is still not known. German authorities at first blamed
it on cucumbers grown in Spain, causing outrage among Spanish farmers. They are
claiming they lost tens of millions of dollars due to a slump in demand. Tests
showed that Spanish cucumbers did not contain the dangerous strain. Bean
sprouts from a farm in Germany are now being tested, though the first tests did
not find the contamination. Cases have shown up in at least 10 countries and
have left more than 600 in intensive care.(30 photos total)
