Calls for clarity over cheese E.coli risk
Calls for clarity over cheese E.coli riskPressure is mounting on Food Standards Scotland to clarify the risks posed by cheeses at the centre of an E.coli outbreak which killed a three year old child and left 19 other people suffering from the illness.Statements issued by the agency have previously revealed that tests have found that the cheese, Dunsyre Blue, "may contain" E.Coli 0157 bacteria, but have refused to confirm whether the bug has actually been found in the product.Symptoms can develop up to two weeks after someone has ingested the bacteria, which can cause stomach cramps, diarrhoea, vomiting and fever.
