Wisconsin health officials initiated a recall of eggs following an outbreak of salmonella infections among 65 people in nine states that originated on a Wisconsin farm, according to the Associated Press.
The Wisconsin Department of Health Services said in a statement Friday that among those infected by salmonella are 42 people in Wisconsin, where the eggs are believed to have been sold.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirmed in a statement on its website that there have been 24 hospitalizations and no deaths as of Friday. States reporting related infections include Wisconsin, Illinois, Michigan, Minnesota, Iowa, Virginia, Colorado, Utah, and California, the agency said.
The egg recall was undertaken by Milo’s Poultry Farms LLC of Bonduel, the CDC said. The Wisconsin Department of Health Services advised anyone who ate the eggs and is experiencing symptoms to contact a health care provider.
