Regrettably, most folks only are aware of EHEC strain of E. coli [0]. Other strains of E. coli are a workhorse in the lab and are harmless.

I was thinking of O-157 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escherichia_coli_O157:H7) as it was associated with ground beef contamination back in the 90s.

So I made an error in calling EHEC a strain, rather, it's an umbrella for all E. coli that produce Shiga toxin and cause human disease.

The best known strain in this category is O-157:H7.

Of course, I may have made some errors, my background is in biochem not microbio.

Whatever the most deadly one is, that’s definitely the one to use to run Doom.

MyHouse but it’s straight to the bathroom and then the demons come to you.
