Salmonella Outbreak Has Sickened People In 24 States, Including Iowa

Iowa — A salmonella outbreak linked to recalled eggs has sickened at least 65 people in 24 states, including Iowa.

A map on the Centers for Disease Control website shows up to three Iowans were among those linked to the outbreak by the end of last week. The eggs — which have been recalled — came from an egg operation in northeast Wisconsin. The eggs were sold in stores under the brand names Milo’s Poultry Farms and Tony’s Fresh Market eggs and also distributed to restaurants in Illinois, Wisconsin, and Michigan.

Doctors say you can feel sick within 12 hours or up to three days after eating food that has salmonella. Symptoms can last up to seven days. At least two dozen people linked to the recalled eggs from Wisconsin were so sick they were hospitalized, but no deaths have been reported. ..
