I am lucky to have an epidemiologist on staff. Perhaps Fresh Start needs one too.
Let me make a prediction, Fresh Start will eat its press release because the FDA will find more cucumbers that test positive for either Africana, Braenderup or Bareilly in states other than Pennsylvania and there will be more clinical (human)
The FDA and CDC, in collaboration with state and local partners, are investigating a multistate outbreak of Salmonella Africana infections potentially linked to cucumbers.
Based on epidemiological information collected by CDC for the Salmonella Africana investigation, as of June 12, 196 people infected with the outbreak strain of SalmonellaAfricana have been reported from 28
The FDA and CDC, in collaboration with state and local partners, announced last week that they are investigating a multistate outbreak of Salmonella Africana infections potentially linked to cucumbers.
Based on epidemiological information collected by CDC for the Salmonella Africana investigation, as of June 4, 162 people infected with the outbreak strain of Salmonella Africana have been
Yesterday the FDA and CDC, in collaboration with state and local partners, announced that they are investigating a multistate outbreak of Salmonella Africana infections potentially linked to cucumbers.
Based on epidemiological information collected by CDC for the Salmonella Africana investigation, as of June 4, 162 people infected with the outbreak strain of Salmonella Africana
In April 2013 the CDC and their state and local partners and the FDA, investigated an outbreak of Salmonella Saintpaul Infections linked to consumption of imported cucumbers. In total, there were 84 outbreak associated cases residing in 18 states. Among persons for whom information was available, illness onset dates ranged from January 12, 2013 to
As of June 4, a total of 162 people infected with the outbreak strain of Salmonella Africana have been reported from 25 states and the District of Columbia. Illnesses started on dates ranging from March 11, 2024, to May 16, 2024. Of 127 people with information available, 54 have been hospitalized and 0 deaths have
Fresh Start Produce Sales, Inc. has recalled cucumbers grown in Florida and distributed to retail distribution centers, wholesalers, and food service distributors in AL, FL, GA, IL, MD, NC, NJ, NY, OH, PA, SC, TN, VA, and WV from May 17th through May 21st, 2024. This product should no longer be available for sale to
Over the last weeks the FDA has been posting increasing numbers of illnesses linked to an unknown food product. As of last count there were at least 141 sickened, but that number is likely larger according to the NCBI database (see below). Today a multistage recall of cucumbers was initiated.
The FDA, and likely other states and the CDC are continuing to investigate both a Listeria outbreak that has sickened 2 and a Salmonella Africana outbreak that has now sickened 141.
11 more, up to 135 in NCBI
minimum = 0 SNPs, maximum = 6 SNPs, average = 1 SNPs
Target creation date range : 2024-04-15 to 2024-05-24
Again, this is a relatively rare Salmonella, there are only 5 clusters in NCBI.
And, the FDA traces back.
