18 people have died so far, either Germans or people who've visited Germany
recently. But far more are seriously ill.
The German authorities do not yet know what caused the illness. They blamed
Spanish cucumbers without proper investigation so now Spanish farmers and
other salad-growers are suffering because of course people won't buy their
produce.
You need to look up E.coli in a news site and go on looking regularly as
obviously the situation will change from day to day.
