Daycare Disaster: 300+ Kids Sick from E. coli Outbreak

Imagine what hundreds of parents in Calgary are going through right now. Their kids are terribly sick with a rare form of E. coli because the daycare they trusted served food from a cockroach-infested kitchen. At least twenty of those kids are in hospital, seven of them on dialysis. Meantime, the daycares are cleared to re-open: who'd want to send their kids back...but what options to many of those families have?  5:55 | ER Dr. Shazma Mithani explains what's so unique about this type of E. coli, and helps us understand the severe complication known as hemolytic uremic syndrome, a disease that affects kidney function. Also, what do you need to know about back-to-school flu season, and up-to-the-minute details on vaccines? Dr. Mithani has us covered. 34:50 | Good luck if you're looking for affordable housing in Vancouver. Mo Amir explains why so many people are left high and dry in the Lower Mainland.
