Food Safety News reported that Federal officials confirmed another E. coli outbreak that they had previously not revealed to the public. At least four states have reported E. coli O157:H7 cases with confirmed patients, who ate at fast food locations, were lettuce on Subway sandwiches, according to a source close to the investigation. Neither the FDA nor the CDC would confirm that Subway products are involved. “No new illnesses have been reported since the CDC initially identified this cluster, and the outbreak is over. CDC is continuing to work with the FDA to identify the source of the outbreak.” The four states are Nevada, Maine, Vermont and New Hampshire, according to a source close to the investigation. Spokespeople from FDA and CDC told Food Safety News that because they believed all of the implicated romaine had passed expiration dates by the time the outbreak was discovered, agency officials did not think the public needed to know. @ https://www.foodsafetynews.com/2020/01/feds-again-withhold-information-about-e-coli-outbreak-fast-food-restaurant-chain-implicated/
