The number of confirmed E. coli circumstances has risen to 14 in Denmark, with at the very least 26 others suspected of having the intestinal infection, the National Serum Institute stated Monday.
Seven of the confirmed circumstances show symptoms of kidney failure which marks an advanced stage of the sickness, the institute said.
"Almost all the 14 infected folks have been in northern Germany recently except just 1. There is a 24-year-old man from Jutland. He has not even been to Germany, so he doesn't very fit with the rest of the pattern," stated Kaare Moelbak, chief physician at the institute. "We do not know yet how he has been so unlucky to obtain this infection but we assume that it has been a person-to-person transmission, or that he has eaten infected vegetables," he added.
Denmark's Veterinary and Food Administration (DVFA) had advised Danish buyers not to eat raw tomato, lettuce and cucumber from Germany, and cucumber from Spain.
It really is now checking Danish cucumbers for traces of E. coli, with outcomes expected on Tuesday.
