Investigation: raw milk vendor lightly punished after child nearly died
Why “do your own research” doesn’t work. The mother believed she “researched” raw milk. On Facebook. She discarded the science behind pasteurization and the dangers of consuming raw milk. 🧪 www.propublica.org/article/cali...
Yet, she demands medical science save her child from her ignorance.
First n foremost pasteurisation is thought as a science subject in every high school. It is not something optional or something to be discounted, this is stupidity at its height.A nation so removed from reality and critical thinking that they are able to kill their own children.
I’ve got news for you; a very large percentage of Americans get all of their news and information from FB, TT, Instagram and the like and don’t even try to do actual research or educate themselves otherwise. The dumbing down of America is almost complete
This isn’t just people doing their own research, it’s a government that openly promotes dangerous health ideas under the guise of freedom and patriotism.
So Facebook has replaced asking an educated, qualified, certified, physician now? We're quickly killing ourselves. But why do we put up with killing others by ignorance, especially ones that can't protect themselves?
I’m 76 years old and pasteurization has been around for my entire life Since 1860 Louis Pasteur invented the process of pasteurization to save lives from bacteria pathogens! Since then people have lived without getting sick from milk and a lot of other foods! Going backwards in time is deadly!
Allrecipes: The FDA & CDC are investigating an E. coli O26:H11 outbreak linked to cheese made with raw milk. Sierra Nevada Cheese Co. is the source of the outbreak, which has sickened 13 people in 9 states. It's almost like we stopped ingesting raw milk for a reason. #ProudBlue #Pinks #SheShed
Cheese made from raw milk seems especially stupid.
It amazes me to no end. How many of these idiots think that pasteurization is a chemical process. Think that when you pasteurize milk you remove nutrients. You're heating it up and holding the temperature to kill the bacteria. Not making patent medicine to be sold on tiktok.
“She had bought raw goat milk from a farm recommended to her in a Facebook group run by her chiropractor”. “Marris believed she had done her due diligence. She had researched raw milk…” Her baby ended up in the ICU with a life-threatening E. coli infection.
I don't think she researched raw milk at all. Research doesn't mean Googling stuff and then discarding information that doesn't support your intended plan. But this is where we are in the world right now. Expertise is discarded or even mocked, while Dr. Google dispenses supportive falsehoods.
"a Facebook group run by her chiropractor”
Chiropractors should not even be a thing. They aren't actual doctors. It's a quack scheme invented by a weirdo.
Her first mistake was relying on her chiropractor for medical/nutritional advice.
van down by the river
So many red-flag words in that one sentence: -raw (milk) -chiropractor -Facebook
Blue state regulators can suck, too. A Girl Nearly Died After Drinking Raw Milk. California Did Little to Punish the Unlicensed Farmer Who Sold It. www.propublica.org/article/cali...
Arrest the parents - along the same lines for kids with guns and measles infections. The child did not randomly pick up raw milk in the store and drink it.
Was he selling it marked "for pet food only"? That's how we used to get it from the health food store in Minden (small town). I did not drink it; I could smell the antibiotics in it and it put me off cheese and milk for years.
