Problem with Porks

Any meat made form pigs has been removed from supermarkets from the UK. Experts think that the food pigs eat contained a dangerous contagious disease called dioxins which would have effected the meat. However, the risk of getting the disease is low but it is always good to be careful. You don't need to worry, because eating a little bite off a infected meat won't effect your health. But alot of infected meat will put you at a risk. Irland sends out their meat into lots of different places all around the world. France, Germany, Russia, and Netherlands all have pork fon Irland imported there every year. In 2007 130000 tons of Irland pork was sent all over the wrold. The government are saying that they are doing all they could. They are checking some pig farms that they think is the problem. Hopefully this case won't turn out to be similar to the poison milk in China.
