Exactly. The colis come from outside. They should not but they mostly do. Mainly because of human carelessness.
Now, the E.coli itself are not the problem. The problem is, that they are resistent against antibiotics (not all, but against enough) ant they tend to pass this resistanse to bacteria, that are pathogen (make you sick). Some of them come also from outside, some of them might be in the meat itself, or the bones, ligaments, etc. So it is a pretty long chain of bad luck to get sick by raw meat, and still tha chances are much lesser, if you cook it.

Mmm, no thanks. I kind of enjoy this particular activity, and would like it to stay so.

However, if a person made it past the first 5 years or so they would survive with a similar life span as we have today.

But, when you average it out with all the people that didn't live past 2 the average mortality age looks very low.

Actually, there is a whole new movement of the paleolithic diet (caveman diet) that is getting steam. basically it talks about eating natural and raw food rather than all the processed sugar and carbs that most people eat today which many think is what causes so many of today's modern diseases like arteriosclerosis and diabetes.

Granted I don't think they advocate raw meat.

There is no way the French would put ketchup in it. That has to be a new receipe.

I do love steak tartare - and the kitty does too :-)

I have actually unintentionally eaten that way my whole life anyway. including raw meat! fast food happens maybe twice a year, I don't buy pre-prepared foods; canned, dried or frozen. even when I had a house full of kids and worked construction, everything was home made and from scratch. my daughter is living proof of how this works. she left home, eats crap and put on 150lbs (my former athlete in training)
