USA: Salmonella outbreak linked to eggs
7 September, 2024
An ongoing outbreak of Salmonella Enteritidis infections has been linked to eggs produced by a poultry farm in Wisconsin.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) are currently investigating this outbreak, which has already affected 65 individuals across nine states. 24 patients have been hospitalized. Laboratory evidence has revealed that the strain of Salmonella causing the outbreak matches the Salmonella found at Milo's Poultry Farm in Bonduel, WI.
As a result, the company has issued a recall for all eggs sold under the Milo's brand and the Tony's Fresh Market brand. This recall includes eggs sold directly to consumers as well as those distributed to restaurants.
