This does not question all knowledge. Bacteremia and cardiac disease have been linked for years (see upvoted comment above), which is why these studies were done in the first place. This study isn't ground breaking, it's extending an already established area of study.

Furthermore, while there are issues of misaligned incentives across the industry, of the top 10 pharma companies: Roche, AstraZeneca, Bayer, Novartis, Sanofi, Novo Nordisk, GSK, are all based in Europe, so your assertion further down makes no sense.
