    Goddammit, Florida. Why is it that everywhere else in the universe does a fairly passable job every fuckin’ day of not being the obvious location for any patient zero scenario at all… except you?

      Isn’t the reason we always hear about “Florida Man” that they have public listing of all their arrests etc? Meaning that presumably everywhere (in America, at least, though I don’t want to throw stones from our glass house) is this crazy!

        This is not an arrest, so that inference is a bit off, and the existence of Florida Man doesn’t change the facts of this instance: the tapeworm larvae were not a punitive result of unwise choices by said individual, but a much deeper issue involving multiple stages of the meat’s processing, storage, transit, etc., with each successive one pointing to a wider scope of oversight failure.
