I've educated myself on this and I feel much safer now.

Apparently half of the confirmed EHEC patients including an 80 year old woman stated to have conducted anal experiments with Spanish cucumbers at least 12h before their first bloody diarrhea. Scientists are still debating whether the bleeding is a consequence of the EHEC bacillus or the raw act itself.Jockel wrote:Yeah, the next cucumber I'll ram up your pooper will definitely have a condom on it.emphatic wrote:I've educated myself on this and I feel much safer now.

also i am not sure that an apple is a vegetable - isn't it a fruit?
on a more serious note: as long as you don't consume cucumbers & tomatoes you'll def be fine!
Re: Shmupmeet in North-Germany 10th-12th June 2011

Alright, I'll eat that apple...on your advice. If I croak, my Attorney will Approach Fast

Re: Shmupmeet in North-Germany 10th-12th June 2011
My last information was that the bacillus most likely originates from manure, so Apples are not affected. Furthermore they have circled one of the sources of the virus on spanish cucumbers and tomatoes. I haven't kept up to date though, maybe there's been some shocking news during the past 1-2 days :p

It also says hundreds fallen sick. Mr Garcia - Any cases you personally know of?Adults at risk
The aggressive form of E.coli is known to cause kidney failure and affect the central nervous system.
Most of the cases have been in the area around Hamburg.
The Sweden-based European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control said this outbreak was "one of the largest described of HUS worldwide and the largest ever reported in Germany".
It said: "While HUS cases are usually observed in children under five years of age, in this outbreak 87% are adults, with a clear predominance of women (68%)."
HUS cases have also been reported in Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands and the UK - linked to German travel.

As I'm still doing Business as a Skateshop Retailer in my own smalltown shop, I'm in Contact with many people, Kids & Parents. Haven't heard of any infections in and around Stade.
Seems to be safe here!
But what about Plasmo? Has Annone heard from him? As a Long Time vegetarian he is pretty much in Danger

Yeah, I bet it's just the fancy tourists who get infected. I know I'm not eating any salad on this trip, Pizza, Wiener Schnitzel, Thai food or some random barbecue (please tell me this is happening!) in the backyard please.
I bet the alcohol will help keep me free from germs as well.

living in hamburg & having contact to quite some of them (who also have their contacts): i don't know of any case personally either (hamburg being a city of roughly 2 million people - so it's about 0.001-0.01% of the population being affected)DEL wrote:Any cases you personally know of?
to sum it up: over 99.99% of the hamburgians have no problem @all with this!

Re: Shmupmeet in North-Germany 10th-12th June 2011
This sunday I'll finally know if I'm able to attend the meet.
Would be a 9+ hours train ride over Berlin, Schwerin and Hamburg (or alternatively over Leipzig, Halle, Uelzen, Hamburg). If anyone has the same path or at least a part of it, we could share a ticket.

Thanks for the offer, but it seems that wouldn't give me any advantage, neither timely nor financially.

I have a problem with my school that might compromise my coming to the meet. I may have to stay a few days longer in Grenoble which means I couldn't catch my plane. I am very unhappy that I have to cope with that bullshit and that it may even prevent me from attending an awesome meet.
Sorry guys, will let you know... :(

Re: Shmupmeet in North-Germany 10th-12th June 2011
Bad news to me.
I have any amount money stored any place. It came from one of my jobs in a public service and do any months I don't take it. Last week I knew which all is locked because I still had not a account in the correct bank and I went over the deadline to take it in money order. I entered which a internal process to get my payment but seems this will take a while
Now I was thinking and if I needed the money to attend one health emergency in my family...
Damn bastards, I'll have a heart attack if they charge income tax from this!!!!!!!!!!
