UK E. coli fish bar scored zero for hygiene

The BBC reports that Llay Fish Bar in Wrexham, suspected as the source of an E. coli O157 outbreak that has left a new mother on life-support and a 3-year-old with renal failure, received zero out of five in a 2008 hygiene inspection.

The Llay Fish Bar has been closed by local council — but only since the severe illnesses emerged.
