The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that, in the U.S. alone, foodborne pathogens are responsible for 76 million illnesses every year. Of the people affected by those illnesses, 300,000 are hospitalized and more than 5,000 die.

Well, Go Bulldogs! And that’s not so easy to say, but this sounds fantastic if it pans out as advertised.

New UGA invention effectively kills foodborne pathogens in minutes
As soon as I saw the headline, I immediately thought that anyone who's ever been around an English Bulldog knows that they're capable of producing certain "aromatic" toxins that will destroy all known forms of life if they get an upset stomach.
BTW, that's UGA on the left.
