Sounds more like it may make zombies.
In Oregon, Art Robinson is running against Pete DeFazio. Robinson is not a politician, he is a scientist. He has written many papers on many topics. He was recently interviewed by Mr. Rachel Maddow, who dredged up a paper from 15 years ago in which Robinson discussed hormesis -- and, based on her limited understanding of this scientific concept, she accused him of wanting to spread radiation around, because radiation is "good for you".
Robinson tore her a new one (though she was too stupid to ever realize this) explaining that hormesis is very complicated, that it would be impossible to defend a single sentence plucked out of a dense scientific work, and that she was clearly smearing him.
He showed brilliance and backbone. And Maddow just shook her head and commented that he was a nutjob.
Bottomline: These Scottish scientists better watch out, because the Left will never forget their nefarious plot to give everyone salmonella.
So in the future scientists will say “it’s okay to eat a Big Mac. Just make sure it’s undercooked and improperly handled.”
Well, it already does, just the hard way.
Its no big secret that any ‘bug’ that causes a high fever cures cancer, but some bugs are more lethal than many cancers.

If it is effective, look for it to save lives in America sometime after 2020. It takes that long for the govt bureaucracy to fleece the pharmaceutical companies for millions, if not billions of dollars.
This sounds interesting up to the point where once the cancer is gone, they eliminate the remaining salmonella with antibiotics.
This may not be a good idea. To start with, as long as the salmonella remains under control, hopefully it will continue to destroy any returning cancer. And cancer can be pretty sneaky.
When cancer is attacked, often it will try and adjust itself to defend against the attack. For this reason, there is a “rule of 3” for cancer, to try and use three different attacks at once, to overwhelm its defenses.
Plus, the underlying circumstances that allowed the cancer to emerge in the first place might still exist. So once cancer free, a new cancer will emerge to take its place, sooner or later.
Yet another situation is that human intestinal flora includes from 300-1000 different types of bacteria, of which 30-40 different types take up 99% of the space. Many of the larger group are pathogenic, but are kept under control by the dominant strains, by literally being denied the space to reproduce.
In addition, there are a truly vast number of viruses in the flora, the majority of which are “bacteriophage”, or bacteria eating. So we’re talking about a very complex environment, here.
More and more doctors are seeing antibiotic resistant bacteria. And these are not “out there”, but already living inside our intestines.
When we take a potent antibiotic, it wipes out a lot of our normal strains of bacteria, leaving a lot of empty space. And though normally, an antibiotic resistant bacteria is harmless, because it can occupy all this now empty space, it has a population explosion.
Which can be very, very bad.
So to wipe out this salmonella, which may be keeping the cancer away, you risk getting a horrible infection because of the antibiotics.
My only experience with Salmonella was that it was a great weight reducer...50 pounds disappeared in a matter of days.
