I understand your point of view but I am not young at all (late sixties) and I am sensitive to stomach problems. However, that is me. As you said, only one person has died, but I don't want to risk it.
My professional culinary suggestion for your situation would be to avoid the epinar, get a specialist onto why you are sensitive to stomach problems, and enjoy every single minute of every single day. And eat what you love, love what you eat, eat to live, and do good when you can....
But that's just me... I'm sure you have some of those policies in place already. ;>)
Just don't automatically jump on the 'avoid this food' bandwagon because of the Lame Stream Media making a mountain out of a molehill.
