OSAKA - A potentially deadly bacteria that causes acute food poisoning spread to another suburb of the Japanese city of Osaka yesterday, affecting a retirement home where 13 elderly patients were found to be infected.
The outbreak at the Shitennoji Hidenin home in Habikino caused further alarm in the Osaka area, where more than 6,000 people, mostly schoolchildren, have been found to have the O-157 colon bacteria.
