xwest+FollowE.coli Cases Jump—Here’s What’s UpE.coli infections shot up 26% last year in the UK, and it’s not just one bad salad to blame. Health experts say cases have been creeping up since 2022, with little kids most at risk. The culprit? Contaminated food, close contact, and even petting zoos. If you get symptoms like stomach cramps or bloody diarrhea, keep your hands (and kitchen) squeaky clean, and don’t cook for others until you’re better. Stay safe out there! #Health #BodyHealth #Ecoli101Share
William Vasquez+FollowButcher Shops Shut Down After TragedyTwo butcher shops in northern France just closed after a 12-year-old girl died from severe food poisoning, and several other kids got sick. The suspected culprit? E. coli from meat products sold at these shops. Authorities are still investigating, but all the kids ate meat from the same places before getting sick. The shops are closed for now while they test samples. Food safety drama like this has been popping up everywhere lately—remember the recent E. coli recalls in the US? Stay tuned for updates! #FoodSafety #BreakingNews #Ecoli #Health12213Share

Kristin Shaw+FollowWho’s Behind That Lettuce Recall?Heads up, salad lovers! The grower linked to last year’s E. coli outbreak in romaine lettuce has finally been named—Taylor Farms. After dozens got sick and one person died, lawsuits are flying, and families want answers. The real kicker? The FDA didn’t name names at first because the lettuce was already off shelves. So, next time you grab a pre-made salad, maybe double-check where it’s from—or just wash those greens like your health depends on it! #FoodSafety #LettuceRecall #Ecoli #ConsumerTips #Business153Share
