Officials in the German city of Hamburg say cucumbers from Spain may not be responsible for the deadly E. coli outbreak that has killed 16 people, as initially reported. The strain of E. coli has so far killed 15 people in Germany, and most recently one woman in Sweden after her return from Germany. Tests on two cucumbers from Spain have revealed they carried the bacteria, but not the strain responsible for the deaths.
