Re: Streptococcus deaths and Flesh Eating Bacteria
Posted by UnivTexo9k on 6/04/06
Streptococcus deaths are common in US hospitals. The three
leading causes of microbial hospital related deaths in the US
are Staph, Strep and Aspergillus poisoning after arriving in
the hospital. But by far the most terrifying are flesh eating
bacteria, ie Streptococcus which take minutes to hours to cause
severe pain and days to weeks to cause death.
I was shocked to read about a case involving one of the
national authorities on flesh eating bacteria and
staphylococcus deaths, Dr. Richard Lipsey,
(www.richardlipsey.com) the nationally known toxicologist,
formerly working in Washington, DC for EPA and for USDA, that
testifys in federal and state courts all over the US. He was an
expert witness in a flesh eating bacteria case involving a
worker who had a small puncture of the arm that resulted in
most of the skin and muscle being eaten away in a few weeks. It
was shocking to see have fast it spread and how it was
resistant to antibiotics. He found over 300 scientific articles
on staphylococcus deaths and 400 scientific articles on
Streptococcus deaths. Dr. Lipsey is quoted in the new book,
Mold Warriors, by Dr. R. Shoemaker. I was surprised to read
that Dr. Lipsey testifys about 90 times a year nationwide.
