Gene,
You don't use humanure in a garden. You use it as a feedstock in making
compost. You use compost in a garden. The general rule is to build a compost pile for a year, then let it sit, or age, or mature, for another year. If, after that time period, you are uneasy about using the compost in your food garden, use it somewhere else.
I have used compost made from humanure and lots of other things for 43 years, all in my food garden, and raised a healthy family on the food.
