Salmonella outbreak linked to eggs sickens dozens of people across 7 states

CNN

More than 70 people across seven states have been sickened due to a salmonella outbreak linked to eggs recalled by a California-based egg distributor, according to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

On Friday, the August Egg Company recalled 1.7 million dozen brown cage-free and brown certified organic eggs, sold under multiple brand names, that have the “potential to be contaminated,” according to a recall notice from the US Food and Drug Administration.

Of the 79 people sickened, 21 people have been hospitalized and no deaths have been reported, the CDC said.

Since the Doge takeover of the USDA dangerous food warnings have dropped off markedly. You can’t help but Wonder if this one bears some anti-California animus.
