Super grub ravages food supplies on Bex
Vicky Benhur reports from Bex
A mutant strain of grub has infested most of Bex's food stores, leading to the contamination of almost all Synthi Meat and Grain. Scientists are battling to come up with a solution to the problem, although the grub has proved resistant to all known pesticides. Meanwhile, the population is almost entirely dependent on imports. Prices are said to have inflated considerably.
