    "A food poisoning bug that kills an estimated 80 people a year in Britain is found in two thirds of all chickens on sale in the country.

    A survey for the Food Standards Agency (FSA) found that contamination in “home-produced” chickens was even higher, with 76 per cent of all samples of whole birds and chicken portions, including those farmed to free-range and organic standards, infected by campylobacter. "
