Why is Scotland the E-Coli capital of the World?
I was wondering if you could tell me why Scotland has been dubbed the E-Coli capital of the world.
Certainly, Scotland's reputation as the E-Coli capital of the world stems from several outbreaks that occurred in the country in the late 1990s and early 2000s. One of the biggest outbreaks occurred in 1996 when contaminated beef from a local farm was served at a school in Wishaw, leading to over 400 cases of E-Coli infection.
