Salmonella outbreaks linked to Italian-style meats sickens dozens: CDC
Fox News
Salmonella outbreaks linked to meats like prosciutto and salami have been reported in 17 states, sickening dozens and hospitalizing at least 12 people.
The CDC said the figures are likely an undercount because many recover without treatment and go without testing. "Epidemiologic data show that the likely sources of both outbreaks are Italian-style meats," an investigation notice reads. In cases with available data, results indicated most people consumed "Italian-style meats, including salami, prosciutto, coppa, and soppressata, that can often be found in antipasto or charcuterie assortments; several brands were reported."More Related News
