Sepsis merupakan keadaan yang serius tetapi jarang menular karena disebabkan oleh bakteri. Hal ini terjadi apabila bakteri (yang dapat berasal dari paru, usus, traktus urinarius) mengeluarkan toksin yang menyebabkan system imun tubuh melawan organ dan jaringan tubuh sendiri.(1)
Sepsis dapat menimbulkan kondisi yang menakutkan karena jika tidak teratasi dapat menimbulkan komplikasi yang serius yang dapat merusak ginjal, paru, otak dan pendengaran. Tetapi dengan mempelajari dan mengenali tanda-tanda sepsis maka kondisi buruk tersebut dapat teratasi dan anak dapat sembuh sempurna.(1)
Berbagai kelompok umur dapat mengalami sepsis, tetapi prevalensi tertinggi terserang sepsis adalah bayi dan anak-anak dimana system imunnya tidak cukup kuat untuk melawan infeksi yang sangat berat.

Largest Recall of Ground Beef Is Ordered Published: February 18, 2008

A California meat company on Sunday issued the largest beef recall in history, 143 million pounds, some of which was used in school lunch programs, Department of Agriculture officials announced.
The recall by the Westland/Hallmark Meat Company, based in Chino, Calif., comes after a widening animal-abuse scandal that started after the Humane Society of the United States distributed an undercover video on Jan. 30 that showed workers kicking sick cows and using forklifts to force them to walk.
