New concerns over evidence for Scots E.coli outbreak cheese sale ban by bacteriology expert (From Herald Scotland)
A LEADING expert on E.coli has raised new questions over a decision to issue a blanket ban on the sale of all cheeses from a producer linked to an outbreak in Scotland, after the food watchdog moved to justify its decision.Professor Hugh Pennington, emeritus professor of bacteriology at the University of Aberdeen, has questioned the evidence finally produced by Food Standards Scotland (FSS) to shut down Lanarkshire-based Errington Cheese which was linked to the E.coli outbreak in July which led to the death of a three-year-old Dunbartonshire girl.He said details produced by the food watchdog show that they still have not come up with the scientific proof that the outbreak strain was found in any of the Errington products and has urged a wider probe to come up with conclusive evidence.
