Food sourced bacteria from chickens and turkeys cause nearly 20% of all urinary tract infections.

UTIs are easier to cure in women. Men’s prostates make it far more difficult to clear bacteria out.

It pays to cook your meat thoroughly and to wash your hands BEFORE you leave to go to the toilet.

The “Take Charge Of Your Health” Ping List

This high volume ping list is for health articles and studies which describe something you or your doctor, when informed, may be able to immediately implement for your benefit.

Email me to get on either the “Common/Top Issues” (20 - 25% fewer pings) or “Everything” list.

RE: The highest-risk strains were most often found in chicken and turkey.

I remember the time Michael Savage (really Michael Weiner, PhD with Medical botany master’s degree; Medical anthropology master’s degree and a Ph.D. in Epidemiology and nutrition sciences) said swearing off red meat doesn’t work because, for example, turkeys eat the worst droppings that pigs and chickens pass up in the barnyard.

I hope McDonald’s is being careful about the condition of the Big Max burgers I eat.

From the article:
"Your risk of infection should not depend on your ZIP code."

That's just silly — and stereotypical of woke nonsense. (Plus, even if it were defensible, any "should" is a political statement, not a scientific or medical statement, and doesn't belong in a medical journal. But anyway, the statement isn't even defensible politically.)

Of course your risk of infections by various agents will depend on where you live ("your ZIP code"). Some examples: Lyme disease, West Nile virus, dengue, Zika, chikungunya, valley fever, histoplasmosis, Cryptococcus gattii, brucellosis, hantavirus, tuberculosis.

Yes, public health efforts should include E. coli. But the cause here is carelessness in food preparation, cooking uncleanliness, and bad hygiene on the part of the residents of certain ZIP codes (the hidden suggestion in the article is the false implication that the problem is due to discrimination against the poor or to racism).

The premise here is ridiculous.

The lousy health of people is what makes them vulnerable to complications from natural organisms on food.

This is just for pron for the medical cartel.

I handle raw chicken as if it were actual poison. Because it is.

“May”, “estimates”—I’m not buying it.
