A 66-year-old disabled woman has died after being infected by E coli bacteria in the south-west of Scotland, Britain's BBC news service reported Tuesday. The woman's husband and five others were still being treated for the infection in the town of Paisley, DPA reported. It is suspected that the dangerous Escherichia coli bacterium was present in tainted meat sold at two branches of Morrisons supermarket in the town. Morrisons said that it had removed the meat from the branches. E coli bacteria leads to serious, often bloody, diarrhoea and severe dehydration.
