As of Tuesday, June 14, the number of lives claimed by the bacterial contamination rose to 37, with some 3,255 who have fallen ill across 14 European countries as well as the United States and Canada.

According to the World Health Organization, 812 patients have been diagnosed with the life-threatening kidney ailment called hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), with approximately 100 thus far who are facing kidney failure and are in need of organ transplants.

Although sprouts from a farm in northern Germany were identified as the source of the E. coli outbreak, officials still have not been able to determine how they became contaminated.

We are saddened to hear of the rise in E. coli related deaths and our prayers are with the concerned families and friends. May such afflictions become a thing of the past as we strive together toward more noble and life-protecting lifestyles.
