THE so-called three-second infection rule clearly did not apply when John Macdonald, 59, dropped his beer in the Brisbane River during a fishing trip.
On March 20 last year, the pensioner was not thinking about what could possibly lurk in the waters below when he fished it back out and kept drinking.
Less than three hours later, he was violently ill with a stomach bug.
Mr Macdonald said he was prescribed antibiotics but nothing worked.
Eight days after the sip, he was admitted to Caboolture Hospital for surgery.
"I was unable to eat or drink by that stage," he said.
"My friends said I'd better get up to the hospital."
