Around Half a Million UTIs Linked to Contaminated Meat in US Annually
More than half a million urinary tract infections in the U.S. each year may be caused by E.
Coli strains from meat products.
A new study published in the journal One Health found that after one year of analyzing 1,923 raw chicken, pork and turkey samples from nine major grocery stores, around 8% of all E.coli cases (primarily UTIs) came from the consumption of food products.
Maria Mercedes Galuppo has the story.
