The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that at least 16 people have been hospitalized after consuming cucumbers produced by a Florida-based manufacturer. The cucumbers, sold between April 29 and May 19, are linked to approximately 50 cases of salmonella food poisoning across 18 states.

Recall actions underway

Due to the outbreak risk, several companies have recalled both the cucumbers sold directly and various food products containing these cucumbers.

What is Salmonella?

Symptoms of salmonella infection include severe diarrhea, fever, vomiting, stomach cramps, and dehydration. The bacteria live in the intestines of humans and animals and can be transmitted through contaminated food.

The CDC urges the public to follow hygiene guidelines carefully and avoid consuming suspicious products.
