Outbreak is new form of E. coli

Prophecy Sign:  Pestilence and plagues throughout the world

As the worlds population continues to increase, and droughts and other weather anomalies become more the norm rather than the exception, pestilence and plagues will become ever more prevalent.  Especially in the impoverished parts of the world, and spreading to the rest of the Globe. Famine breeds plagues, lack of food breeds conditions for spreading disease.

There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven. Luke 21:11 NIV

I looked, and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him. They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth. Revelation 6:8 NIV

From the article:

The E. coli outbreak in Germany is a new form of the bacterium, researchers and public health experts believe. It can cause the deadly complication - haemolytic-uraemic syndrome (HUS) - affecting the blood and kidneys. More than 1,500 people have been infected and 18 have died: 17 in Germany and one in Sweden. Seven people in the UK have the infection, including three British nationals. They are all thought to have contracted it in Germany. The World Health Organization said the variant had "never been seen in an outbreak situation before."
