News & Perspective

Officials did not have specific enough data to issue an alert during the outbreak.

The first large-scale egg recall since 2010 comes after 23 illnesses in 9 states.

The CDC reports 95 new cases, for a total of 265 in 8 states, but with more than 90% in Iowa.

In total, 132 cases in 32 states are tied to kratom, an herbal alternative to opioids.

The FDA took the step after the company refused to voluntarily recall its products in the wake of positive lab tests for Salmonella.

Illnesses from Salmonella Javiana, Thompson, and Infantis have risen about 50% in 10 years.

Three of 13 patients have been hospitalized, and recalled products include those from Natural Grocers and International Harvest, Inc.

The CDC plans to post an announcement soon, which will include a recommendation that people not eat recalled Coconut Smiles Organic from Natural Grocers.
