Viruses in our Salmon

Hi guys!! 

Did you SEE this? Farm raised salmon from Chile are tainted with viruses that can actually kill the salmon. So. There are viruses that kill salmon ... and we end up eating that meat. 

Farm raised salmon from Chile have had lots of problems over time because of all the chemicals they throw at these fish -- the FDA has had to investigate them because of it. 

Farm raised fish from other areas, Scotland, Norway, US ... don't seem to have as many of the same problems that the Chilean salmon do. 

The FDA responded to this story by saying that there is no evidence that our eating fish-killing viruses is bad for us!! Is it me, or does this just sound absurd? 

I have a video on this, too, here if you're interested.

Would love to get your thoughts.
