The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention issued an alert for a Salmonella outbreak linked to eggs. (Article by Danielle republished from 100PercentFedUp.com) The agency reported 65 illnesses and 24 hospitalizations across nine states. “Milo’s Poultry Farms, LLC. of Bonduel, WI is recalling all ‘Milo’s Poultry Farms’ and ‘Tony’s Fresh Market’ branded eggs because these eggs have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella, an organism which can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems,” an FDA alert read. “Milo’s Poultry Farms’ eggs were distributed in Wisconsin, Illinois, and Michigan through retail stores and foodservice distributors,” the alert added. From the FDA:
This recall includes:
  • All carton sizes and all egg types labeled with “Milo’s Poultry Farms.” This recall covers all expiration dates.
  • All carton sizes of “Tony’s Fresh Market” branded eggs, all expiration dates.
  • All cases of eggs for retail foodservice distribution, all expiration dates.
The recall was initiated after the FDA informed the company that environmental samples tested positive for the bacteria. FDA also conducted whole genome sequencing and found that the samples were related to an ongoing Salmonella outbreak investigation. Milo’s Poultry Farms, LLC. has ceased production and distribution at this time and will undergo appropriate testing and sanitization of farms and processing equipment.
According to a map posted by the CDC, the states where sick individuals lived include:
  • Wisconsin
  • Illinois
  • Michigan
  • Iowa
  • Minnesota
  • Virginia
  • Colorado
  • Utah
  • California
Per USA TODAY:
“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.
