Cultured meat could be grown in sterile conditions, avoiding Salmonella, E. coli, Campylobacter and other nasties.
About five cases of Cryptosporidium and Campylobacter have been reported on the island during the past three months.
On Capitol Hill, infectious disease specialists testified that campylobacter and other new germs, such as the virulent form of E. coli, are emerging all the time.
For example, only 20 years ago Listeria, E. coli O157:H7, Campylobacter and Cyclospora, all of which have caused recent outbreaks, were not known to cause foodborne illness.
For example, four different sorts of food-borne bug Salmonella, Shigella, Campylobacter and Yersinia can cause reactive arthritis, a painful inflammation of the joints that may last months or even years.
Health experts say once unknown bacteria including campylobacter, commonly found in chicken, are now thought to be a significant cause of such disorders as Guillain-Barre Syndrome, which can cause paralysis.
Unpasteurized milk can carry salmonella, campylobacter, and E. coli O157: H7, the strain that came to public attention in the nineties when four children died after eating contaminated meat at Jack in the Box.
The group analyzed 2011 data recently released by the U.S. government and found 81 percent of ground turkey and 55 percent of ground beef sold in supermarkets carried antibiotic-resistant strands of salmonella and Campylobacter.

"We were able to estimate that a minimum of 30 percent and possibly even more than 50 percent of GBS patients had had preceding campylobacter infection, " said Dr. Ban Mishu Allos of Vanderbilt University's School of Medicine.
It's no surprise that you would find salmonella and Campylobacter and E. coli, but if you look at the numbers, these are low levels and in the case of salmonella, for instance, we are seeing a decrease in multidrug-resistant strains in humans.
