New Superbug Strain Found In Cows and People 144
sciencehabit writes "A novel form of deadly drug-resistant bacteria that hides from a standard test has turned up in Europe. Researchers found the so-called MRSA strain in both dairy cows and humans in the United Kingdom, suggesting that it might be passed from dairies to the general population. But before you toss your milk, don't panic: The superbug isn't a concern in pasteurized dairy products."

How many people in the general population even know what pasteurization means?
It clearly refers to free-range milk. You know, letting it wander around in the pasture all day. Pasteurization.
Thanks, I'll be here all week.
