At least 90 people have been sickened across the United States amid a Salmonella outbreak that has been traced to raw turkey products, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC said earlier this week that it is investigating the multistate outbreak in which raw turkey from “a variety of sources” was contaminated with Salmonella Reading, leading to infections in 26 states. Nearly half of those who have become ill have been hospitalized, the CDC said, but no deaths have been reported. Bill Marler, a food safety attorney, said that the current outbreak points to “a Salmonella contamination at a farm level that has moved into multiple streams of products.” “It just shows how Salmonella, particularly antibiotic-resistant Salmonella, can be in one location and spread through the entire food chain,” he told The Washington Post. No main manufacturer or distributor has been determined.
