E. Coli in Beef - Affected Areas Expanded

Posted on July 17, 2008 by Law Office of D. Hardison Wood
According to a report e. coli found in recalled beef in Michigan and Ohio has now been expanded to three other states to include New York, Kentucky and Indiana.
The outbreak has been traced to beef sold in Kroger supermarkets in Michigan and Ohio. The Kroger Co. last month recalled ground beef sold in Michigan and Ohio stores, then this month expanded it to include other states. Nebraska Beef Ltd. supplied the meat, ultimately recalling 5.3 million pounds of beef.
According to the report, this e. coli can cause deadly infections. So far, the CDC says that 21 people have been hospitalized, one person developed kidney failure, however, no one has died.
