 \nA farmer imjects a diseased and dying steer with a ranqulizer.Keeping diseased meat from entering the food supply is an important sofety measure.  \nwith cheese—hordes of bacteria and othermicroscopic critters enter our bodies alongwith the food.It can't be helped.They'reall over—in the air,on the table,on thespoon,in the water.  \nLuckily,almost all the organisms areharmless.But if food is not wellcooked oris handled in an unsanitary manner,harm-ful germs can easily sneak a ride rightinto your stomach.  \nLast year,up to 33 million peoplebecame sick from food-borne germs.Most of those people had mild to severestomach pain.But thousands were leftwith lasting health problems,and morethan 9,000 died.  \nSince 1993,several highly publicizedoutbreaks of food poisoning have occurred.  \nEstablished 1902Valume 96lssue 19Weak of Fobrvary 17,1997  \nPaler Mueller/Rmuters/Archive Pholns  \n●Death by Hamburger.In 1993,fourchildren died in the U.S.Northwest aftereating E.coli bacteria in undercookedburgers from a fast-food chain.More than  \nBob lialiano  \n# Sidelights\n\nContaminated food may haveplayed a much larger role in his-tory than anyone has supposed.According to a theory by MaryKilbourne Matossian,a historian,rye grain contaminated by a fun-gus called ergot is the likely causeof many outbreaks of terror andhysteria,such as the Salem WitchTrials,which began in 1692.(Scene above is from\"TheCrucible,\"a new movie based onthe trials.)  \nAccording to Matossian,ergot,which can be highly poisonous,can cause a whole range of symp-toms,including hallucinations,delusions,even death.Rye was themain grain of the settlers inSalem,and climatic conditionswere just right at the time for thegrowth of the fungus.The symp-toms displayed by the youngwomen in Salem that caused themto be accused of witchcraft,saysMatossian,are exactly the sameas those of ergot poisoning.  \nAPwide waid phoes  \nA scientist (above)examinesirradiated tomatoes.Irradiationinvolves bombarding food withradiation to kill all germs.Irradiation makes possible thestorage of milk and other productswithout refrigeration for years.But the public has been slow toaccept irradiated food.  \n# IS FOOD SAFE?\n\ncontinued from poge one  \n700 other people became ill.  \nE.coli lives in the intestines and stom-achs of cattle and is spread mainlythrough undercooked beef,milk,and cont-aminated water.  \n·Killer Apple Juice.In October 1996,  \nE.coli in Odwalla brand unpasteurizedapple juice sickened dozens and killed aColorado girl.  \n●Bad Oysters.Last month,at least150 people in Louisiana became severelyillafter eating salmonella-tainted oysters.  \nSalmonella,also a bacterium,is in justabout all foods,but it is chiefly associatedwith eggs and poultry.The bacterium iseasily killed by cooking,but poor hygienecan lead to recontamination—for instance,putting a cooked chicken back onto acutting board where the raw chickenwas standing.  \n●Mad Cow Disease.Last summer,Great Britain raised fears when itannounced that ten people might havedied from eating beef believed to be taintedwith“mad cow disease.”  \nThe organism that causes mad cow dis-ease creates holes in the brain,leading tomadness and death.  \nSince mad cow disease was linked tohuman deaths a year ago,more than 1.2million British cows have been destroyedin Great Britain.U.S.experts say that noknown incident of mad cow disease hasyet occurred in the United States.  \n## Government Action\n\nGrowing public concern over those inci-dents and others has led to governmentaction.On January 25,President Clintondevoted his weekly radio address to theproblem of ensuring a safer food suppl","cbCairM9Cruv6TRF","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCairM9Cruv6TRF","pdf",2691161,"English","# CURRENT EVENTS\n## HOW SAFE IS OUR FOOD?\n# Sidelights\n## IS FOOD SAFE?\n# Government Action\n## 'A Shot in the Arm'\n# Consider This...","[{\"question\":\"What makes foodborne germs especially dangerous?\",\"answer\":\"Harmful organisms can spread through contaminated food and poor handling, and they can multiply quickly when food is kept in the unsafe temperature range.
