Via Basler Zeitung: EHEC first case in Switzerland. Excerpt from a computer translation, with my editing:
In Switzerland, a wife is ill with diarrhea after returning from Northern Germany. It was probably caused by the same strain of EHEC bacteria that occurs in Germany. There were no complications occurred, said the BAG.
The patient had the first symptoms on 22 May, writes the Federal Office of Public Health (BAG). She had food poisoning probably contracted in the food on a salad buffet. Following this meal, other people had fallen ill in Germany; they would also have eaten there.
University analyzed type of bacteria
The Institute for Food Safety and Hygiene at the University of Zurich (NENT) is continuing to analyze the type of bacteria. In Switzerland, so far no other case of EHEC infection in connection with the situation in Germany had been reported. Since the beginning of the year 20 cases have reported, which corresponds to the usual number of reports in previous years.
