I just copied and pasted this from my email.
Thought I'd better share this with everyone
so we can all be safer when we eat/drink/breathe.
IMPORTANT
A stock clerk was sent to clean up a storeroom in Maui , Hawaii .
When he got back, he was complaining that the storeroom was really filthy and
that he had noticed dried mouse/rat droppings in some areas.
A couple of days later, he started to feel like he was coming down with a
stomach flu, complained of sore joints and headaches, and began to vomit.
He went to bed and never really got up again. Within two days he was severely
ill and weak. His blood sugar count was down to 66, and his face and eyeballs
were yellow. He was rushed to the emergency at Pali-Momi, where he was diagnosed
to be suffering from massive organ failure. He died shortly before midnight .
No one would have made the connection between his job and his death, had it
not been for a doctor who specifically asked if he had been in a warehouse or
exposed to dried rat/mouse droppings at any time. They said there is a virus
(much like the Hanta virus) that lives in dried rat and mouse droppings.
Once dried, these droppings are like dust and can easily be breathed in or
ingested if a person does not wear protective gear or fails to wash face and
hands thoroughly.
An autopsy was performed on the clerk to verify the doctor's suspicions.
This is why it is extremely important to ALWAYS carefully rinse off the tops of canned sodas or foods, and to wipe off pasta packaging, cereal boxes, and so on.
Almost everything you buy in a supermarket was stored in a warehouse at one time or another, and stores themselves often have rodents.
Most of us remember to wash vegetables and
fruits but never think of boxes and cans.
The ugly truth is, even the most modern,
upper-class, super store has rats and mice. And their warehouse most assuredly
does!
Whenever you buy any canned soft drink,
please make sure that you wash the top with running water and soap or, if that
is not available, drink with a straw.
The investigation of soda cans by the Center
for Disease Control in Atlanta discovered that the tops of soda cans can be
encrusted with dried rat's urine, which is so toxic it can be lethal. Canned
drinks and other foodstuffs are stored in warehouses and containers that are
usually infested with rodents, and then they get transported to retail outlets
without being properly cleaned.
Please forward this message to the people you care about.

we have the same disease with rats and mice here too. it's deadly and everything that has been out of your control should be washed. this isn't something to play with. and don't vacuum droppings. it only puts the dust in the air. several people in arizona have died from this so heed the warning.
I think it goes without saying that you should still wash all of your food though ... god only knows where it's been or who has touched it.
Don't assume it couldn't happen to you! Here's how the scam works.
Two hot 20 year-old girls sidle over to your car as you are loading your shopping bags into the trunk. They both start wiping your windscreen with soap & water, with their cleavage almost falling out of their little tops. It's impossible not to look. When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No' and instead ask you for a lift around the corner.
On the way, they start fondling each others' breasts and kissing each other. Then one of them climbs over into the front seat and gives you a bj, while the other one steals your wallet.
I had my wallet stolen on May 15th, 16th, 17th, twice on the 19th, 20th and 21st. It happened again on June 5th, 7th, 9th, 13th, 17th, 19th, three times on June 20th and it will happen again this weekend as soon as I can buy more wallets.
hahahahahahahahaha!

alot of business cards, scratch paper
