A stock clerk was sent to clean up a storeroom in Maui, Hawaii.
When he got back, he was complaining that the storeroom was
really filthy and that he had noticed dried mouse or
rat droppings in some areas.A couple of days later, he started to feel like he was coming down
with a stomach flu, complained of sore joints and headaches, and
began to vomit. He went to bed and never really got up again.
Within two days he was severely ill! and weak. His blood sugar count
was down to 66, and his face and eyeballs were yellow. He was
rushed to the emergency at Pali-Momi, where he was diagnosed to
be suffering from massive organ failure. He died shortly before midnight.No one would have made the connection between his job and his death,
had it not been for a doctor who specifically asked if he had been in a
warehouse or exposed to dried rat or mouse droppings at any time They
said there is a virus (much like the Hanta virus) that lives in dried rat and
mouse droppings. Once dried, these droppings are like dust and can easily
be breathed in or ingested if a person does not wear protective gear or
fails to wash face and hands thoroughly.An autopsy was performed on the clerk to verify the
doctor’s suspicions…This is why it is extremely important to ALWAYS carefully rinse off
the tops of canned sodas or foods, and to wipe ! off pasta
packaging, cereal boxes, and so on. Almost everything you
buy in a supermarket was stored in a warehouse at one time or another,
and stores themselves often have rodents. Most of us remember to wash vegetables and fruits but never think of boxes and cans.The ugly truth is, even the most modern, upper class, super store
have rats and mice. And their warehouse most assuredly does!Whenever you buy any canned soft drink, please make sure that you
wash the top with running water and soap or, if that is
not available, drink with a straw.The investigation of soda cans by the Center for Disease Control in
Atlanta discovered that the tops of soda cans can be encrusted with
dried rat’s urine, which is so toxic it can be lethal. Canned drinks and
other foodstuffs are stored in warehouses and containers that are usually
infested with Rodents, and then they get transported to retail outlets
without being properly cleaned.
i think we’d all be dead by now if this was 100% true
