Description:
Two recent cases of infection in children in Grey Bruce have been linked to raw milk products, public health officials said yesterday, 18 Mar 2007.

A 2-year-old was taken to hospital with yersiniosis, a gastrointestinal infection, after drinking raw milk on her family farm, according to a statement from Hazel Lynn, the local medical health officer.

Another infant was confirmed to have listeriosis, an infection that causes flu-like symptoms, which seems to have come from raw milk cheese consumed by the baby's mother, Dr. Lynn said, adding that the infant seems to be recovering.

Women with newborns should not consume raw milk or non-pasteurized dairy products in order to avoid infecting their babies, Dr. Lynn said.

I am a believer. I have been drinking raw milk for years and have seen babies thrive when not able to handle anything else.
