A four-year-old boy ate cheese and died after nine years in a coma.

A 13-year-old boy named Mattia Maestri died nine years after consuming contaminated cheese produced at a local dairy farm in Coredo, Italy. The incident, which occurred in 2017 due to Escherichia coli contamination, shocked the nation. His father, Giovanni Battista Maestri, has been advocating for mandatory risk labeling on products made from unpasteurized milk for years, seeking justice for his son. Despite ongoing calls for regulatory changes, such legislation remains unimplemented. The family announced plans to file a manslaughter lawsuit, according to Sky TG24.
