Egg recall is linked to a salmonella outbreak, CDC says: See which states are impacted
View Date:2024-12-23 23:44:15
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) says recalled eggs are linked to a salmonella outbreak. The CDC and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) are both investigating. Across nine states, 65 people were infected with salmonella linked to eggs supplied by Milo's Poultry Farms, LLC. The illnesses started from May 23 to Aug. 10, according to a FDA alert issued Friday. 24 people have been hospitalized. No deaths have been reported. "The true number of sick people in this outbreak is likely much higher than the number reported, and the outbreak may not be limited to the states with known illnesses," the CDC says. "This is because many people recover without medical care and are not tested for Salmonella. In addition, recent illnesses may not yet be reported as it usually takes 3 to 4 weeks to determine if a sick person is part of an outbreak." The CDC investigation broke down the demographics of the 65 cases reported for the egg recall. People who contracted salmonella ages ranged from two to 88 years old. Fifty-six percent of the cases were females and 46% were male. The race majority for the 65 cases were white which accounted for 92%, followed by 5% African-American or Black and 3% Asian. Milo's Poultry Farms, LLC is in Bonduel, Wisconsin, about 29 miles north of Green Bay, Wisconsin. Milo’s Poultry Farm, LLC has voluntarily recalled all eggs supplied by their farm in response to the investigation, the FDA said. The recalled eggs were distributed to retailers and foodservice distributors in Wisconsin, Illinois, and Michigan, the alert said. USA TODAY reached out to the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture Trade and Consumer Protection, Wisconsin Department of Health Services, and Milo's Poultry Farms, LLC for comment. According to the CDC, the eggs were labeled with Milo's Poultry Farms or Tony's Fresh Market. Tony’s Fresh Market said they are cooperating. "The health and safety of our customers is our top priority. We are fully cooperating with the FDA on their investigation and have taken immediate action by removing all affected products related to this recall from our shelves," Marisa Kutansky, a spokesperson for Heritage Grocers Group, the owner of Tony's Fresh Market. "We are monitoring this recall and will continue to do all we can to ensure our customers’ safety." Here is what you need to know about the egg recall.

Children younger than the age of five, the elderly, and people who are immunosuppressed are more likely to have severe infections if they contract salmonella, the FDA said.
