Man battles life-threatening bacterial infection years after eating THIS meat
A Florida man in his 70s developed a rare Brucella suis bacterial infection from handling and eating feral pig meat, which infected his defibrillator years later. Despite multiple hospital visits and antibiotics, the infection went undiagnosed until 2020, necessitating the removal and replacement of the defibrillator. Three years post-treatment, the man shows no signs of the infection.
