Guest guest Posted January 22, 2006 Report Posted January 22, 2006 <<E. coli O157:H7 can be acquired by eating contaminated food. The bacteria live in the intestines of some healthy cattle and contamination of the meat may occur in the slaughtering process. Deer meat (venison) may also be infected with the organism. Eating meat that is rare or inadequately cooked is the most common way of getting the infection.>> When this occurs do they fine the slaughter house and shut it down?
