it's a bit scary that there's an ecoli breakout in Germany and it's a new strain never seen before.

E coli strain previously unseen and 'resistant to antibiotics'

E coli strain previously unseen and 'resistant to antibiotics' | World news | The Guardian

However, by saying it's resistant to antibiotics does NO service - you SHOULD NOT take antibiotics if you're poisoned by ecoli since it has shown it only makes it worse! Only your body can fight it off and heal. If you take antibiotics, it will cause ecoli to break down and release MORE toxins thus causing more complications.
 
Saw this on the national news earlier.

Every disease process mutates and changes in order to stay alive.
 
How would the doctor tell the difference between the old and new ones?
