This sentence seems to be contradictory. If pure honey has anti 
bacterial and anti microbial characteristics, then the presence of 
bacteria in honey would indeed be newsworthy.

The implication then is that it's not the honey that naturally has 
the bacteria, but unclean container or unsanitary practices?
