They did this to themselves
Perhaps unknowingly. Per the article:
What’s alarming, experts said, is how little the public seems to understand about the seriousness of those risks. In a survey of 1,031 U.S. adults conducted in June, 24 percent of respondents thought raw milk was as safe or safer than pasteurized milk, and 30 percent were unsure.
They were all taught this in school. If they were dumb enough to read some bullshit they read on Facebook, that’s their own damn fault.
And that survey didn’t even ask the right question. They don’t just think that raw milk is as safe, they think it’s safer, and healthier, and missing the secret mind controlling poison that pasteurization adds.
There is a reason that pasteurization has become the standard. Things have been clean, and good, and safe, for so long that everyone has forgotten how dangerous the world used to be, and why all these safety precautions exist in the first place.
I’m ok with that, let’s hope they continue
This is the best summary I could come up with:
After two emergency room visits and a three-day hospitalization, he finally began to recover, said Jackie, who lives in Southern California and requested to be identified only by her first name to protect her family’s privacy.
Jackie’s son was one of 171 people sickened and 22 hospitalized from September 2023 to March 2024 in a salmonella outbreak linked to unpasteurized milk from Raw Farm, according to the California Department of Public Health.
Public health officials have long warned that drinking raw milk could cause food-borne illness, which in rare cases can be deadly, especially for children, older adults and those who are pregnant or who have weakened immune systems.
Yet consumer interest in raw milk seems only to have grown — retail sales were about 35 percent higher this June compared with a year earlier, according to data from the market research firm NielsenIQ.
“Drinking raw milk has always been playing Russian roulette with your health,” said Dr. Michael Payne, a researcher at the Western Institute of Food Safety and Security at the University of California, Davis.
And people don’t often hear about food recalls, which may be posted on grocery store bulletin boards or government social media accounts, said Vanessa Coffman, director of the Alliance to Stop Foodborne Illness.
