I suspect that over use of antibiotics has lead to much stronger bacteria which cannot be treated easily could be to blame.

E. coli outbreak is a new strain

Quote:
The World Health Organization says the E. coli outbreak in Germany is a completely new strain of the bacteria.

The infection can cause the deadly complication - haemolytic-uraemic syndrome - affecting the blood and kidneys.

More than 1,500 people have been infected and 17 have died: 16 in Germany and one in Sweden.


More from the BBC here.

Early evidence suggests the bacteria has genes from two distinct groups of E. coli: enteroaggregative E. coli (EAEC) and enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC).


Has someone been playing god? :P

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.
