According to Denis Stearns, a Marler Clark partner and Wisconsin Law School graduate: "although most people recover from an E. coli O157: H7 infection, about 5-10% of infected individuals goes on to develop hemolytic uremic syndrome ("HUS"), a severe life-threatening complication. HUS was first described in 1955, and is now recognized as the most common cause of kidney failure in childhood. E. coli O157: H7 is responsible for over 90% of the cases of HUS that develop in North America." For additional information on E. coli, please visit www.about-ecoli.com
People who ate at Sizzler and have suffered any symptoms should see immediate medical attention and contact the Milwaukee Health Department.
